Abstract

There are a growing number of disasters in Hungary, and throughout the world, that have had devastating effects, and the activities related to prevention, protection and damage cleanup last for a long time. The defence activities are accomplished by professional organizations responsible for remedial actions, namely the National Directorate General for Disaster Management, Ministry of the Interior (NDGDM) and the Hungarian Defence Forces (HDF). Working for a long period of time at the site of damage cleanup works is a heavy burden and effort. Therefore, maintenance of the appropriate physical condition of the official staff intervening in disasters and carrying out demanding physical duties is essential for effective work activities. Catering, providing food and drink supply for organizations carrying out intervention is one of the basic responsibilities of the professional organizations. With the aid and application of the methods of modern food science the energy need of the human body accomplishing demanding activities can be determined by taking body weight and parameters of weather into account. In this work, we aim to analyse the impacts physical workers’ bodies are exposed to. We also define and through examples present the amount, quality and form of the required nutrient and fluid intakes. Through our research, we would like to assist medical and logistic professionals responsible for catering the intervening organization.
