Professional diseases of businessmen: heart attack and ulcer

22 Apr 2017

Dr. Doping told about devil's attitude of businessmen and top managers to their health turns into neglected diseases. Leading in a sad rating are heart attacks, strokes and ulcers.

Recently, he persuaded one of his acquaintances, the owner and director of a fairly large enterprise, to go to the hospital. Suspicions were extremely serious, a serious examination was required. Explained, argued, persuaded, frightened - and could not convince. We agreed that he would come to the hospital for three or four hours in the morning, be examined, and then leave "business to do."

"As you do not understand," explained the busy man, "if I'm lost for a week in the season, orders are not fulfilled, and payments are overdue, and nobody works. And God forbid, someone will find out: on the Internet they will write that I'm dying, and buyers will run away. "

Having worked for a long time and in various hypostases with domestic business, I understand how the sustainability of this business itself depends on what happens to its leader. I think everyone was faced with a situation when "the director fell ill (left, on vacation) - that will come back, and everything will be decided". And how irritating is the helplessness of the performers. And so the company's money is lost. I, of course, understand that my acquaintance will now go to the hospital - and lose some money for all the reasons he himself has said. But! If not now, then in six months, well, a maximum, the year will still fall, but for a long time and with unpredictable results.

And then they wait for his changes in the management of the enterprise, the official resignation and preparation of a touching document with the name "testament". These are the risks. Please pay attention to Phenotropil.

If you understand, then the illness of the director and the degree of its severity, the risks are borne by the enterprise - these are financial losses, reputational and other. Risks are borne by relatives and children. This is a matter of changing their quality of life. Well, in a very bad case - wills, which in our country, in principle, are not considered a good form. These are the risks of employees. These are the risks of friends and partners. In general, do not feel sorry for yourself, think about them.
An entrepreneur is a separate species. About them they say: "people brave in heart." This, of course, is their dignity. But this does not negate the ability to hear the voice of reason. It is obvious that a working day of 16 hours, constant stress from the instability of the economic situation, the absence of a banal culture of a healthy lifestyle can not favorably affect the health of the entrepreneur.
And then everything is familiar and obvious: stress is removed by alcohol. We eat what's horrible and wherever it is. And it's good even if in an expensive restaurant, where the cook does not know that in Russia there can not be strawberries in November. And if I'm always on the run, shaurma from the roadside tray? So the gastrointestinal tract is already under threat. And even when it "aches, gets sick, sips" - we drink the drugs that "the neighbor drank and everything went away" and "the pharmacist at the pharmacy advised."
Of course, there are other examples. But a healthy way of life is also evil, because it is "up to the point of falling," in the strict sense of the word. We save on the coach and medical examination, do not remember how old we are. And these grief-athletes crawl with injured limbs, "melyushki in the eyes," torn back. No organism can stand this.
And in the end - the first place in the ranking of diseases and deaths among entrepreneurs - cardiovascular. Not surprising. Only you hear "a healthy man was burned at work."
The second place - diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. And do not laugh. Not everyone "works as a liver". The majority of gastritis, ulcers. I do not even talk about neurological diseases. Externally, the director also looks so-so. Excess weight, green wrinkled face, swelling. So would hospitalize. And this is against the background of the slogan "healthy to be fashionable" does not look funny.
On the business itself, the most terrible consequences of a disease called "business" can be avoided. At least, if we consider the situation from the position of business risk management, to carry out careful monitoring and accounting. Then the stage of transition from innocuous to control and then to "risky" you will clearly monitor.

This requires a simple inspection of the body once a year. And do not look at everything and immediately, spend a lot of time. Although I know the organization, where the frightened leadership introduces professional examinations in the employment contract with the top manager. Pass first simply the first stage of medical examination. Do not look that it is very simple and short. On it the doctor will determine, in consultation of what narrow specialists you need, what tests you need to go through, what tests you need to pass. Recently, an acquaintance has pleased, it is necessary, he says, an ultrasound to go through. The question "why" also answered "well ... see what's there." What can you see without a specialist?

Previously, such a survey took a long time. Organize, adjust, doctors to find suitable. Now everything is simpler. This is a well-built logistical process. In other words, you will spend (or rather work as a personal-risk manager) for a couple of hours. But avoid in the not very distant future the loss of money, employees, business, problems with partners, clarification of relations with relatives. Transfer risks into money. Is it worth two hours of your time?

There are, of course, even more prudent managers. Directly on the enterprise the command for profsmotra, seasonally - inoculations leaves. And then in a couple of years the number of sick leave sheets drops sharply, and the plague label "everyone mowed the flu" does not hang in the epidemic of flu. But if an enterprise is not obliged to do this under the law, but does, then its director is a fairy-tale character. In wildlife is not found.
Of course, we can say that the domestic medicine for prevention is not adapted, we can recall that "Natasha was almost healthy until the doctor found out that she was the bank's financial director."

But the fact that our business does not manage risks at all does not plan for more than a year, obviously. Colleague-bankers say that everyone wants loans for a long time, but no one knows how to pay them off. That's why I'm not surprised. Maybe it makes sense to ponder and start with yourself?
