Manager za zdravje-Modna muha ali nuja za podjetja / Manager for Health-Buzzword or Necessity for Companies

Povzetek:Človeški kapital je nevidno premoženje, ki doprinese k višanju inovativnosti, produktivnosti ter k višji zaposljivosti in predstavlja individualno značilnost posameznika ne glede na starostno obdobje. Pomen človeškega kapitala v družbi so že v letu 1995 potrdile analize Svetovne banke, ki so pokazale, da človeški kapital predstavlja v visoko razvitih državah povprečno 67% celotnega bogastva države in presega delež fizičnega kapitala. Zato staranje ljudi skupaj s skrbjo za njihovo zdravje in posledično dobro počutje predstavlja pomemben izziv; njegovo obvladovanje ali ne-obvladovanje pa bo imelo ekonomske in socialne posledice. Eden izmed načinov obvladovanja zdravja, varnosti na delovnem mestu in dobrega počutja je zagotovo oblikovanje funkcije managerja za zdravje v podjetju, katerega skrb se bo nanašala na aktivnosti, ki so usmerjene na človeka (zaposlenega), na njegovo telo, dušo in duha. Osnovna naloga managerja za zdravje so naložbe v povečano zdravstveno motivacijo zaposlenih, spodbujanje delovnega vzdušja in povečanje socialnih kompetenc. Rezultat je klasična win-win situacija za zaposlene z zagotavljanjem večjega fizičnega in psihičnega dobrega počutja, ki se odraža v nižji stopnji stresa na delovnem mestu. Pomen in hkrati potrebo po uvajanju managerja za zdravje v okolje organizacij poudarja, v okviru zdravstvenih ciljev, tudi Svetovna organizacija za zdravje, ki pravi, da je strateški pristop k managerju za zdravje, potreben in v skladu s svetovno vizijo "zdravje za vse".

Zato je manager za zdravje, ki vodi službo za zdravje in obvladovanje varnosti, primerno celovit izziv za obvladovanje tega področja.
