Dear rabbacm Hello I am Dr Sharma Smoking is for sure injurious to health. Here the issue is not of active of passive smoking. As you are a non smoker you are most vulnerable to any kind of smoke and you can avoid it. For those you are smoking they are themself putting their health and life at risk. I think they need good counselling and told about the health risks involved. If you feel you cant change them you can change your room if possible and if not--- look out for a new job. I hope it answers your query with regards Ravinder Sharma
