Workplace Smoking Rules in Wyoming

General provisions. No general provision. However, in Wyoming, it is an unfair employment practice for an employer to require as a condition of employment that any employee or prospective employee use or refrain from using tobacco products outside the course of employment. In addition, the employer must not otherwise discriminate against any person on the basis of use or nonuse of tobacco products in compensation or other terms and conditions of employment, unless it is a bona fide occupational qualification that a person not use tobacco products outside the workplace.

It is possible for employers to have a health, disability or life insurance policy distinguishing between employees for type or price of coverage based upon tobacco use or nonuse if the differential premium rates assessed reflect the actual differential cost to the employer and the employer provides written notice to employees setting forth the differential rates imposed by its insurance carriers.
