Summa Health Systems in Akron says it will no longer hire smokers.

People applying to work for Summa must agree to a urine test to confirm they don’t use tobacco products.

The policy doesn’t affect current employees at the six-hospital system.

Other hospital and health care systems have also stopped hiring smokers, including the Cleveland Clinic and Medical Mutual of Ohio.
