Who gets fined if someone is smoking in an establishment where smoking is prohibited – the business owner/manager or the smoker?
Any person 18 years of age or older who violates the law is subject to a fine. However, the business owner or manager is not subject to a penalty as long as he/she has posted the required signs, implemented the appropriate policy, and informed the person that he/she is violating the law. Local laws may further specify requirements for both business owners and the general public.
