The public expenses for health promotion in 2012 do not include any tertiary prevention in accordance with the OECD definition (rehabilitation and treatments) and were inflationadjusted to 2015. However, the measures for promoting health in the workplace should be understood not only in monetary values but also in the diversity of the measures on offer which shows how intensively the topic of protecting the health of human resources is addressed. Around half the measures (46 percent) are focused on physical activities (see graph below), but nutrition and cholesterol levels also make up a significant portion of the measures at 35 percent. Other important components of preventive health care measures address stress management (six percent), back pain prevention (four percent) and weight control (four percent). A number of additional measures also exist (grouped under other measures), such as vaccinations, vision tests and eye training, preventive examinations and advice on ergonomically correct workstations.
