Abstract
Objetivo
Evaluar los cambios en las expectativas y las actitudes sobre la Ley 28/2005 de medidas sanitarias frente al tabaquismo de los trabajadores de la hostelería tras 2 años de su entrada en vigor.
Métodos
Estudio longitudinal de una cohorte de trabajadores del sector de la hostelería de cinco comunidades autónomas (n=431) antes de la entrada en vigor de la ley y 24 meses después. Se comparararon el conocimiento de la ley, las expectativas de cumplimiento y los conocimientos sobre los efectos adversos del tabaquismo pasivo antes y después de la ley.
Resultados
De los 431 trabajadores participantes iniciales se obtuvo respuesta de 219 a los 2 años (tasa de seguimiento del 50,8%). El 79,0% de los trabajadores conocía el proyecto de ley antes de su entrada en vigor, frente al 94,1% que afirmó conocerla después (p<0,05). Se observó un aumento en el porcentaje de trabajadores que estaban de acuerdo en prohibir el consumo de tabaco en todos los lugares públicos, incluidos los bares y restaurantes (del 54,1% al 65,8%; p<0,05). Se observó un aumento en los porcentajes de apoyo a la actual norma, en la percepción de su cumplimiento por parte de los trabajadores y de los clientes, y en el conocimiento de los efectos adversos del humo ambiental del tabaco.
Conclusiones
El conocimiento y la aceptación de la ley de medidas sanitarias frente al tabaquismo por parte de los trabajadores de la hostelería ha aumentado 2 años después de su entrada en vigor
Objective To assess changes in hospitality workers’ expectations and attitudes towards the Spanish smoking law before and 2 years after the smoking ban. Methods We performed a longitudinal study of a cohort (n=431) of hospitality workers in five regions in Spain before the law came into effect and 24 months later. Expectations and attitudes towards the ban and knowledge about the effect of second-hand smoke on health were compared before and after the ban. Results We recruited 431 hospitality workers in the baseline survey and 219 were followed-up 24 months later (overall follow-up rate of 50.8%). The percentage of hospitality workers who knew the law was 79.0% before it was passed and was 94.1% 24 months later (p<0.05). We observed an increase in support to the smoke-free ban in all public places, including bars and restaurants (54.1% to 65.8%; p<0.05). The percentages of support for the current ban, perception of compliance with the ban by employees and customers, and knowledge of the effect of second-hand smoke on health also increased. Conclusions Knowledge and support to the Spanish smoking law among hospitality workers increased 2 years after the implementation of the ban
