Polish citizens favor expanding occupational medicine to include additional preventive health examinations, according to the enel-med report "Health Unites Us.". In addition to improving employee health, these changes could boost productivity and reduce healthcare costs borne by the National Health Fund (NFZ).

“Occupational medicine can become a vital tool for prevention and early detection of health problems, which would benefit employees, employers, and the entire healthcare system,” Magdalena Damasiewicz, Director of Subscription and Health Insurance at enel-med, emphasized.

According to the report, 36 percent of respondents want their test results to remain confidential. The number of women who express interest in such changes is significantly higher (82 percent) than the number of men (66 percent).
