National Centre of Public Health Protection
The National Centre of Public Health Protection (NCPHP) in Sofia, Bulgaria, incorporates units with 50 years of experience in the field. Its main activities include research and development, expert consultancy, methodological and training activities in the area of public health protection, assessment of health risks due to occupational and environmental factors, personal behaviour and lifestyle, health promotion and integral diseases prevention.
In 1998, the Bulgarian Government and the Bulgarian Industrial Association agreed to develop the National Network of Health and Safety Promoting Companies (NNHSPC). The "Healthy and Safe Workplaces" Department of the NCPHP in Sofia was authorised to implement the agreement. In 1999 it also took on the role of National Contact Office for the ENWHP, ensuring coordinated participation in ENWHP projects and in joint activities of the NNHSPC with many stakeholders in this area, within the framework of the Bulgarian Forum "Healthy and Safe Workplaces", established in 2004 following the fourth ENWHP initiative.
