ABSTRACT
Purpose: The purpose of the article is to explain the problem of the disease as an obstacle
in the exercise of the highest functions and public offices. The analysis of international and
national regulations making the highest functions and public offices dependent on the
health status of candidates was made.
Methods: The article was prepared on the basis of the following research methods: legal
dogmatic, systematic and comparative method. In the alternative, the systematic method
and case law analysis were used.
Results: The research confirmed the thesis that the existing health regulations of officers
are functional. Their aim is to provide state protection in the event of illness of a person
responsible for the public sphere.
Discussion: Further research should be given to whether the solutions proposed by
the national legislator are partially compatible with international regulations obliging
candidates for public office to undergo medical examination or disclose certain medical
data, including the scope of health information.
