Today we get to answer Jennifer’s question, who owns a coffee shop opening in the next few weeks. She's asking about managing employee smoke breaks in the restaurant.

Research shows that breaks can improve employee productivity hence allowing regular breaks is a common practice that many owners apply when managing a restaurant.

But how about smoke breaks? How can a restaurant owner manage employee smoke breaks? Setting a policy or guidelines that are clear and concise is the best way to handle this. For example, the guidelines may include that after every smoke break, an employee should wash their hands within the next 20 seconds otherwise they will be reprimanded. Also, let your employee understand the rationale behind every policy or guideline. Food safety and hygiene are of utmost importance, especially for restaurant businesses. As restaurant owners, it is our job to ensure we are managing smoke breaks for a safe workplace.
