“No business owner wants to get hit with a fine, whether it’s from OSHA, state or local authorities,” says Compliance Signs Inc. President Paul Sandefer. “Our new line of Wisconsin No Smoking signs and labels is the easy way to avoid trouble. They include state-specific information, they’re durable and they’re available in a variety of styles to match any business décor.”

The new law covers almost every indoor workplace, including restaurants, bars, clubs, hotels, work vehicles and sports arenas. Businesses can establish outdoor smoking areas that cannot be regulated by local governments. Adequate No Smoking signage is required under the law. An individual in violation of the law will be fined $100 to $250. Any person in charge who violates the law will be fined $100. The first violation requires a warning and the maximum daily fine is $100 regardless of the number of violations.

Smoke-Free Wisconsin signs available from ComplianceSigns.com include:
• Premium framed signs with a 6" x 9" brushed metal plate recessed in an oak, mahogany or black wood frame
• Designer plaques with a 6" x 8" brushed metal plate mounted to a wooden plaque with walnut, cherry or gloss black finish
• Standard signs and labels in a variety of sizes and industrial-quality materials: self-adhesive label, rigid plastic, sturdy aluminum or flexible magnetic
• Clear labels designed for use on building and vehicle windows

Under the new law, businesses must:
• Post adequate signage

• Not provide matches or ashtrays
• Ask any person violating the law to stop smoking
• Ask any person violating the law to leave
• Refuse service to any person violating the law in the case of restaurants, bars, and private clubs, and notify law enforcement if the person refuses to comply.
