on PR Division followup of the workplace project approved
last April 12 by the Executive Committee.:
S~tudp to identify design/planning concerns in workplace
segregation
Environetics, Inc., is proceeding with a survey of
approximately 60 prominent corporate planning managers and
space planning firms to learn productivity inhibitions of
segregation. Interviews will also identify space planning
firms in key localities as an avenue toward helpful third-
party testimony.
Cost analysis of actual workplace restrictions
The analysis as it affects Suffolk County was complet-
ed..
Legal implications of workplace smoking restrictions
Paper prepared by Counsel is in hand. Article is con-
templated, discussing legal implications, for publication in
a management journa}., and for executive briefings.
Additional research by Dr. Solmon and others
Summary 'paper on survey of restriction policies in
Fortune 500 companies was distributed to your Committee.
Identical survey of Fortune Service 500 is in progress.
Survey may be extended to Inc. 500 (smaller, fastest-growing
companies). UCLA's National Center for the Study of Evalua-
tion (Dr. Eva Baker) is preparing proposal to develop a
format for management study of costs, productivity, and so
forth, before adoption of any smoking policy. Proposal is
due by the end of the month.

magazines are the first target. Vogel speeches, articles
and testimony will follow.
Resolutions, speeches, articles and other materials from
labor sources

document is now in unlimited use by field staff. Additional
PR Division activities and recommendations in this area are
to be considered July 11 by the Communications Committee.
Discussion
State Activities Policy Committee recommended substan ""~
tial additional conversations about workplace policies with
editors; and participation of legislative counsel and of 'i
local counsel in key communities in communicating new work-
place information to managements.
