abstract
The psychical health and mainly its protection get even more important in last decades. There are thousands of employees constantly exposed to stress during their whole workday. There are managers performing high pressure roles. The more stress is on the workplace generated, the higher number of psychological health issues society is facing. Therefore, it is important to set forth rules; employers and employees must know how to handle psychical issues. These paper exams the level of protection guaranteed to the psychical health of employees in laws of Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Poland and Slovakia. There is a general definition of psychical health set forth in international agreements and other documents. For example, the preamble of Constitution of the World Health Organization describes health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. Notwithstanding this definition is not shared in every country in question, all countries protect general health; the psychical health is mostly considered to be an inherent part of it. The level of protection of psychical health is varying throughout the examined countries. Most countries protect employees’ psychical health in occupational safety regulations. The protection is mostly technical without taking account to specific needs of psychical health. The worse regulation can be found in Poland. There are regulations on health protection but these are not considered to be covering psychical health too.
