Occupational medicine – Profiting from health
The roots of Hungarian occupational medicine go back to the era of the founder of our state, King Saint Steven. The "lus Regale" (1030) defined the role of Hungarian Mine Law. With progress in time, the related decrees had been modified on several occasions. In our days the Act XCIII / 1993 regulates comprehensively Hungarian labour safety.
According to the principles set in the Constitution, the aim of the Act is to regulate the necessary personal, materialistic and organisational conditions of non-hazardous and safe work, to secure health and ability of employees as well as to humanise work conditions, thus to prevent work accidents as well as occupational and related diseases.
