Smoking Ban and Termination

In Illinois we have had a smoking ban for over 4 years which is long enough for everyone to have heard of in our state. I servie copy machines and do network maintenance and am being forced to go into an accounting firm in Central IL that feels that the smoking ban does not apply to them. The building smells, there is heavy smoke in the air, and the owner is kind of like a dragon. She doesn't even have a cigarette in her hand but she still will have smoke pouring out of her mouth after speaking 2 complete sentences.
Can I be fired for reporting them to the authorities and for letting them know that the reason I am unable to give them good service is due to the fact that I feel ill and get a migraine while in the office and cannot perform under the current circumstances?

There is a Buffalo Wild Wings here that has two sections, one smoking, one not. They are separated by a complete wall and door. On the non-smoking side, you can't even tell that there is a smoking section unless you go in there. I think that would be a acceptable for most forms of business.
Besides everything...

Except here you'd need to have willing employees.

True....finding people willing to work these days is proving difficult. Especially when they can just live off of the working.

As long as the person is working willingly....go for it, but I'm against persecuting anyone.
Well you just took that one to an illogical place didn't you?
FYI......roads are public, not private.

We've gone from prosecuting poor behavior to trying to prevent poor behavior.
Understandable, but we're talking private property and not public property. That, and I can say some completely off-the-wall stuff.
