Recently, a "healthy wind" has blown in Dongguan, Guangdong: health lectures have been held in the production workshop, and workers have lined up to receive special diagnosis and treatment. According to reports, this is due to the fact that more and more professional doctors have become "deputy health directors". Local public hospitals, community health service centers, and centers for disease control and prevention select and hire professional medical personnel to provide face-to-face and point-to-point health services for employees of factories and enterprises in the form of slicing and responsibility. In the past, employees had to go to medical institutions**, but now when they work in factories, doctors come to visit them.

Or due to physical and mental fatigue, or due to insufficient health management, many factors lead to unsatisfactory health conditions of many employees. According to the statistics of the National Health Commission, 60% of the employees of Chinese enterprises are in a sub-health state, and the sub-health status of employees in economically developed cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou is more than 13% higher than the average level. This situation is worrying, and it is also calling for effective means of improvement to come quickly.

Equipping a "health deputy director" is a positive measure that can bring multiple benefits to employees and enterprises. For employees, with the "deputy director of health" settled in, they can have a direct safety barrier, and can also improve their own health awareness in the ears and eyes, which is conducive to avoiding and reducing occupational diseases. For enterprises, it can avoid the occurrence of some health and safety accidents, create a solid "health shield" for enterprises, and enhance the "resistance" and cohesion of enterprises.

Equipped with a "health deputy director", what is more valuable is the concept of people-oriented and life-oriented. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasized the need to "promote the construction of a healthy China". In recent years, policies and plans such as the "Healthy Enterprise Construction Specification (Trial)" have been promulgated, which have clarified the development goals and directions for the construction of healthy enterprises. At present, there is still a certain imbalance in the distribution of medical resources, and the "deputy director of health" is to provide more convenient health care services for employees through the sinking of medical resources. In essence, this is a kind of humanistic care and institutional warmth, and it is a positive attempt to promote the sharing of high-quality medical resources by the whole people, which is worthy of praise.

In this context, there is more to be done to protect the health of employees. First, the functions and responsibilities of the "deputy director of health" can be further improved. For example, mental health services could be included. Second, the "deputy director of health" can diagnose a single case, find the common problems of a factory, an enterprise and even an industry, and feed back to the formulation of the health management plan of the enterprise and industry. Third, now the "health deputy director" is only a practice in Dongguan, and it is expected that this attempt can set off a butterfly effect, which will be replicated and promoted throughout the country to benefit more employees.

People's livelihood, health is the greatest. When the concept of "health deputy factory director" reflects in the whole society, improving the health index and happiness index of all kinds of workers will help create a more "strong and strong" society. It is hoped that this practice will bring more inspiration to all localities and gather a strong consensus and action consciousness of more enterprises to protect the health of employees.
