问答题
Dijo Ltd carries on a food packaging and distribution business. The company’s business premises are separated into an office, which deals with the administration of the business, and a factory section, where the packaging and distribution take place.
Dijo Ltd has always operated a ‘no smoking’ policy in the factory section, although there is no reference to this in any employee’s contract of employment. Smoking is permitted, however, in the office section, and this is a concern of resentment between office and factory staff, and for those office workers who do not smoke.
