Those nice people at the National Institute for Clinical Excellence have issued more guidelines.
This time it's about standing up rather than sitting in meetings.
Nice also called for better education in schools about the risks of drinking too much, and no public health diktat would be complete without mentioning smoking.
Forest's response, quoted by the Telegraph, was:
"Health workers should be judged on their ability to do their job, not on some politically correct picture of the perfect person.
"As long as it doesn't interfere with their job it's immoral to threaten hard-working people with disciplinary action just because they enjoy a smoke before or after work or during a legitimate break. Health workers shouldn't have to be role models."
See Bosses 'should make staff stand in meetings' (Daily Telegraph).
I was also quoted by the Sun but it's behind the paywall.
Update: The Sun quoted me saying:
"Health workers shouldn't have to be role models. What happens if they're overweight? Will they be forced to lose weight in order to keep their jobs?"
