<br/><br/> Health Promotion is defined as the process of enabling people to increase control over their health through informed and responsible choices. The purpose of our study is to call into question the conditions for bringing about this “enabling to act” and “empowerment” in the particular context of the organization. Our analysis focuses on the forms of institutionalization of this power to act by the communication processes. We put into perspective these elements related to what De Terssac and Gaillard (2008) call “organizational health” as a reciprocal process of adjustment between organization and individuals. Secondly, we discuss these communication processes in relation to the ethical issues that they raise.
