Contact your County Commissioner if in the County or City Hall in town. Cities have ordinances. Counties use a "health and Safety Code". Not sure what the departments are titled in your state but it's probably the same.

Your OSHA regulations should be posted in your workplace - this is law. there should be a number to call on this poster and they will let you know what the law is. If this is law, they will contact your employer and they will be fined. Some employers post this in places that are hard to see (which is also against regulations)

You should have access to an employee realtions person internal to your company. They handle these matters in a confidential manner. If you do not have access to an ER person, then you can get in touch with your local OSHA dept and make an anonymous complaint. \n\nNow--if you work in a bar or some place where smoking is the norm, this does not make sense.

All you have to do is read section 504. Look for articles discussing businesses renovating their buildings when 504 enforcement came into effect (in the early 1990s). \n\nI've worked with people who only held jobs because of ADA requiring employers to modify the environment and work hours to accomodate disabilities, and these people were greatly beneficial to the workplace.
