[Psychosocial risks in the health care sector: foreword].
In the introduction to the section devoted to the psychosocial risk in the health care sector and their evaluation an attempt is made to trace a road from texts reporting experiences with objective and subjective diagnostic instruments and the necessity of their integration, to specific applications in contexts of psychological disturbances and the development of training and prevention programs. Their applicability in the real context of health care realities on the basis of actual norms and regulations is also considered. The series is closed by the last contribution supporting the idea that the workers wellbeing must be constructed not only by structuring their work in terms of well organized activities but primarily activities which can give sense to the operators worklife as well.
