The 10 fields of action of healthy companies.

Physical activity is the single strongest lever in workplace health management — and one of the few that statutory health insurers directly subsidise.

Healthy nutrition at work reduces fatigue, improves concentration and cuts long-term illness — and is eligible for statutory health-insurance funding.

Mental illness is the most common cause of long-term absence. Stress prevention isn't a soft-skills programme — it's a legal requirement under the Occupational Safety Act (ArbSchG).

Addiction at work often goes unrecognised for years — with massive consequences for productivity, the team and manager liability.

Ergonomics isn't a nice-to-have — it's a legal requirement. And a poorly designed workplace costs more than investing in good equipment.

Managers are the strongest health factor in a company — or the strongest risk factor. Healthy leadership can be learned.

Culture is the invisible factor in workplace health management. Every measure fails if the company's underlying attitude treats health as a private matter.

Occupational health check-ups are partly mandatory — and entirely an investment that pays off many times over through illnesses caught early.

Workplace health management without a steering structure isn't workplace health management — it's a collection of random measures. Governance is the difference between activism and a system.

Remote work, AI colleagues, an always-on culture: the digital working world brings new health risks — and workplace health management needs answers to them.
