Abstract

Mental and physical health determines the individual’s life quality, productivity, work performance and activity. In addition, it also has a strong impact on the effectiveness and fruitfulness of the functions the individual has in his or her closer or wider environment and also influences his or her public and social activity. Based on this fact we can assert that the existence of programmes that maintain and support the health of the individuals – in other words the members of society – is a major social priority. The effectiveness of individual and social efforts aiming to preserve mental health is in close correlation with biological health protection and the optimal operation of social space, in which workplace health protection has a major role.
