Abstract

The role of the effective human resource management became more important in the last decades. The globalisation trends, the effects of the micro- and macro environment including the labour market situation, the changes of acts, laws and regulations requires the employment of well-trained HR specialists and the adaption of skills and best practices regardless to the size of the organisation. Based on surveys nowadays the labour-hoarding, building commitment and increasing the loyalty became the most important activities of the human resources management. These topics are all strongly related to the workplace well-being. One of the special characteristics of the human resources management is the integrated approach means all the fields of human resources management belongs to each other and they all have effects on each other. Because of these changes new functions of the human resources management
formed including retaining, diversity management, generation management, talent management, work-experience management and HR branding. Recently, more attention is paid to those HR solutions which are combined with digitalisation and gamification. The attitudes regarding to the traditional areas of human resource management also changed. The role of health preservation in the organisation in connection with the labour safety activities also became important. The health preservation also has impacts on the workplace well-being. The aim of the study is to clarify the most important notions, concepts and approaches of the workplace well-being, their connections to other HR activities with special regard to the role of the health preservation based on domestic and international literature. We also expound the factors affecting the workplace well-being connected with the health preservation like commitment, stress, satisfaction, work-life balance, and health development.
