Last Chance to Take the Tobacco Test at Phipps
To reward employees who don’t use tobacco, nicotine replacement
products or e-cigarettes, a voluntary tobacco testing process is now in
effect. The reward will be applied as a credit on employees’ biweekly
paychecks, effective January 2017. Don’t put it off, nonsmokers!
Friday, Oct. 28, is the last chance for employees who elect benefits
through medical plans offered by Johns Hopkins Medicine to take
the tobacco test at Phipps. The alternative is another Johns Hopkins location or a LabCorp location of your choosing. You can find testing locations and dates, and learn more about an eight-week smoking cessation class for employees on the East Baltimore campus at hopkinsmedicine.org/ human_resources/benefits/tobaccotesting.
