PSS plans to groom healthy civil servants


PUTRAJAYA: The Cabinet committee meeting on Agenda Nasional Malaysia Sihat (ANMS) has approved the Putrajaya Sihat Sejahtera (PSS) Strategic Plan as part of the national health agenda’s initiatives.

The plan aims to support the government’s goal of fostering a healthy public service workforce capable of contributing productively to Malaysia’s development.

Deputy Prime Minister and ANMS Cabinet Committee chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi (pic) said the PSS Strategic Plan outlined various strategies, initiatives and targets to be achieved by 2030.

“It aims to reduce the prevalence of health risk factors among public servants in Putrajaya by implementing policies promoting a healthy lifestyle and creating a health-supportive environment, while also improving health literacy and workplace wellness practices,” he said in a statement that was reported by Bernama after chairing the meeting yesterday.

PSS will be implemented from the pilot phase, running from 2024 to 2025 with a baseline data survey to be conducted this year, followed by an effectiveness survey at the end of 2025.
