| Summary: | The concept of sustainable development refers to efforts to improve in a harmonious way economic,
social and environmental dimensions. One of the main aspects of the social dimension of sustainable
development is public health. In the introduction the role of indicator systems to monitor the effectiveness
of any policy, including sustainable development is recalled. Usually such systems contain a subset of the
public health indicators. This is the case Eurostat and GUS databases. In the paper a qualitative analysis
of such subset of indicators available through the Eurostat database is carried out. The life expectancy
is the leading indicator with a variant of the healthy life years. Quoted is the rationale for excluding
this variant from analyzes that compare different populations due to subjectivity of this option. Later in
the article a lack of indicators to which a visible impact on the leading indicator could be attributed is
concluded. Consequently, the subset of indicators under consideration can not be treated as a decision
support tool. Thus, its meaning is limited to the information and comparison purposes. |
