This is the labor productivity lose that focus the attention of this research. Objective: To design a procedure to determine the social cost by absolute labor productivity lose attributable to smoking. Materials and Methods: The procedure was made taking account empirical methods as the descriptive statistic, solution of equation system and differential calculus. Results: The procedure designed is appliable for transversal research only. For logitudinal research, the procedure need be applied for each time period. Nevertheless, the CIT develop might contribute with an apk to standarizate the calculus. The application of the procedure at Cuban context in 2011 showed the feasibility from their aplicability. Conclusions: Was made a procedure to estimate the social cost by absolute labor productivity lose attributable to smoking. The procedure is useful in transversal research.
