  Growth in the economy and production, as well as increased labor burdens, have led to an increase in the number of occupational health, including accidents at work and occupational diseases.

  As the first steps of the methodology described in international models, this research facilitates the steps of assessment and evaluation, followed by planning, among individuals, organizations and the supporting environment. Within the framework of the series of surveys, we assessed, among others, the sports activity of workers in the sectors of public administration, defense and compulsory social security. Our hypothesis that the majority of employers (at least 70%) provide health promotion according to employees has not been confirmed. More than a third of worksites (37.9%) provide health promotion opportunities based on employee responses. Based on the results obtained, comprehensive proposals can be formulated that can be useful to employers, employees and actors in the supportive environment.

  This study investigates the sports preferences and participation levels among young residents of Soroksár, a district on the outskirts of Budapest, Hungary. Utilizing a mixed-method approach, data was collected through a questionnaire survey conducted in autumn 2023. Statistical analysis was performed to assess the significance of factors influencing sports participation. The results indicate that local infrastructure and accessibility significantly impact sports engagement among youth, with preferences leaning towards sports readily available in the community. Notably, early initiation of sports participation positively correlated with academic achievement, emphasizing the importance of holistic development through sports. The findings underscore the need for comprehensive infrastructural development to support mass sports participation and promote healthy lifestyles. Local policymakers are urged to prioritize investments in sports facilities and opportunities, recognizing the multifaceted benefits of sustained sports engagement beyond elite-level support. This study provides insights into sports participation in Soroksár and calls for further research to inform evidence-based interventions promoting physical activity and intellectual development among youth.
