Weakened Health, How About Non-Face-to-Face Exercise? National Health Insurance Service Busan Gyeongnam Headquarters Promotes Workers' 'Health UP Happiness UP'

Customized Health Management Services for Exercise, Smoking Cessation, and Alcohol Moderation through Local Resource Integration

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Shall we overcome the "COVID era" with non-face-to-face exercise?

During the "With_Corona" period, when health management is difficult due to the risk of infection, interest in non-face-to-face exercise that allows people to live actively while following quarantine rules such as social distancing is increasing.

The National Health Insurance Service Busan Gyeongnam Regional Headquarters (Director Jang Su-mok) is conducting a non-face-to-face worker health promotion program called "Health UP Happiness UP" from the 20th to October in cooperation with the Busan Smoking Cessation Support Center and the Busan Healthy City Support Group to improve citizens' health deteriorated by COVID-19.

This project utilizes the Service's big data. It targets workers at workplaces with high obesity, drinking, and smoking rates in the Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam regions, providing customized programs for health exercise, smoking cessation, and drinking moderation management to encourage healthy living and create a "Self care" environment to improve health.

Director Jang Su-mok said, "Although 37% of office workers fail to manage their health due to lack of time and willpower, a survey shows that 94.7% are willing to participate if health promotion activities and programs are operated at the workplace."

Director Jang added, "We will develop and provide various services to help improve and manage workers' health, including the Health UP Happiness UP program, through the National Health Insurance Service."
