A Shanghai hospital has launched a program to improve the health of its medical staff and boost their career enthusiasm amid the stressful job atmosphere.

Shanghai Children's Medical Center announced on Monday that it has introduced an international health standard, aiming to establish a healthy workplace for the well-being of its staff.

The standard was initiated by the nonprofit organization CEO Roundtable on Cancer, which urges employers to create healthy workplaces to reduce the risks of cancer and other diseases. Based on the standard, the program will focus on a series of improvements in people's health, including nutrition, physical activity, prevention and early detection of disease, and avoidance of tobacco.
