To mark Health Day, celebrated on April 7, we have prepared special informational brochures on preventive health care for Vesuvius employees in Skawina. This initiative is intended to remind everyone how important it is to take care of their health every day – not just on special occasions.

The year 2026 has been declared the Year of Health Prevention. It is a special moment to pause and reflect on our habits, our approach to health, and our responsibility for ourselves and for our loved ones.

The power of prevention

Health prevention primarily involves preventing diseases, detecting them early, and taking appropriate action if they occur. Thanks to prevention, it is possible not only to avoid many illnesses but also to increase the chances of effective treatment and reduce the risk of complications.

The brochure prepared for employees highlights that our health is influenced both by our daily choices and by regular check-ups. Screening tests, in particular, make it possible to detect diseases at an early stage, when the chances of recovery are greatest. The materials also remind us of simple yet extremely important actions that each of us can implement in our daily lives:

• pay attention to healthy habits,
• sign up for preventive check-ups,
• support our loved ones in taking care of their health.

These everyday decisions build the foundation for a long and healthy life. Prevention is a real investment in the future, both our own and that of our loved ones.

Responsibility that matters

We believe that caring for employees’ health is more than just an obligation – it is an expression of responsibility and care for people and their families. That is why we encourage a conscious approach to health, regular check-ups, and responding to the first signals from the body.

The brochure also points to practical sources of knowledge. On the Akademia NFZ website, you can find up-to-date information on healthy lifestyles as well as a preventive check-up calendar. This tool suggests, among other things:

• which tests are worth taking depending on age and gender,
• which vaccinations are recommended,
• which preventive programs are available,
• which specialists you should consider visiting for a check-up.

World Health Day is a good moment to share an important message with one another: we only have one health – let’s take care of it consciously, regularly, and together.
