One of the most fundamental conditions for quality of life is the protection of health and prevention of avoidable illness and disability throughout life. Public health measures play an essential role during unexpected health crises and in reducing leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the world annually. The ability of workers to take leave for their own health needs and those of their family is also critical to the protection of health for workers and their families.
