Dear Member,

In the letter dated 02.05.2025 and numbered 274907408, sent to our Chamber from the Provincial Health Directorate of the Edirne Governorship of the Republic of Turkey,

In the 2024-2028 Action Plan for Preventing Adult and Childhood Obesity and Physical Activity, which is implemented by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Turkey, the Healthy Nutrition and Active Life Program aims to "create active environments" and in the 2024-2028 Strategic Plan of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Turkey, the "Nutrition-Friendly and Physical Activity-Supporting Workplace Program" was implemented with the aim of "transforming habits such as healthy nutrition and increasing physical activity into social attitudes to promote a healthy lifestyle".

In line with the updates, institutions and workplaces that were not able to apply for the program because they did not provide meal services to their employees according to the old guide, but that support their employees financially or physically with nutrition despite not providing active meal services, have now gained the opportunity to participate in the program.

The updated guide for the Nutrition-Friendly and Physical Activity-Supporting Workplace program is included in the appendix; businesses wishing to participate in the program must prepare their application files in accordance with the guide and submit them to the Edirne Provincial Health Directorate Public Health Services Department - Healthy Nutrition and Active Life Unit .

Best regards.
