Financial Incentives More Likely to Get People to Quit Smoking
Financial incentives are a more effective way to get employees to quit smoking than offering free deterrents such as nicotine patches or e-cigarettes, according to astudy in theNew England Journal of Medicine.

Amidst dramatic global change, there is a greater need than ever for principled and committed professionals.
