Following the increase observed between 2005 and 2010, the prevalence of smoking stabilized in 2014 among those aged 15–75 (34.1% of current smokers), and regular smoking even appears to have declined slightly but significantly (from 29.1% in 2010 to 28.2% in 2014). The proportion of former smokers has increased compared to 2010 (from 29.2% to 31.0%), as has the proportion of smokers who attempted to quit within the past year (from 25.2% to 29.0%). Analysis by gender shows that the prevalence of regular smoking is declining only among women (from 26.0% to 24.3%). However, among women, the generational effect already observed in 2010 among those aged 45–64 continued into 2014, with the proportion of women aged 55–64 who smoke daily continuing to rise. Daily tobacco consumption appears stable among daily smokers (13.5 cigarettes per day) and is concentrated in ranges between 5 and 15 cigarettes per day. Social inequalities regarding smoking persist. The gap between the unemployed and those in the workforce continues to widen, even though the least advantaged smokers are just as likely as others to report wanting to quit smoking. This finding calls for the development of support tailored to each population group based on their needs and challenges. [author’s abstract]
