[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Gwiyeol] The Yeongyang County Public Health Center in Gyeongbuk is operating the ‘Visiting Workplace Health Consultation Room’ for office workers in local workplaces from September 13 to October 26, for about two months.

The ‘Visiting Workplace Health Consultation Room’ is a program that directly visits workplaces to provide 1:1 customized basic health checkups and consultations for office workers who are exposed to health risk factors such as frequent drinking gatherings, smoking, high-calorie diets, and work stress, but do not receive proper management in time.

The program includes basic tests such as measuring blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, triglycerides, oral examinations, urine acidity tests, and stress measurements. Based on the results, consultations are provided in areas such as chronic disease management, oral health, nutrition, smoking cessation, and mental health to help maintain healthy lifestyle habits.

According to the results of each test item, individuals with findings will be identified and, through systematic management later, it is expected to contribute to improving health levels and enhancing health equity.

Jang Yeo-jin, the head of the Public Health Center, said, “I hope busy office workers actively take advantage of this opportunity to pay attention to health management and continuously strive to promote health in their daily lives, so that Yeongyang County can become a healthier community.”
