Health Surveillance and Screening

Health surveillance means regular examinations and tests determined by the risks to which workers are exposed. Hearing in noisy environments, respiration in dusty ones, eyes for screen workers and general health follow-up for shift workers come to the fore.

Our screening packages

• Audiometry (hearing test) and assessment of noise exposure
• Lung function test (spirometry) and referral for chest X-ray
• Vision screening and eye examination for screen workers
• Blood, urine and biochemistry tests
• Coordination of carrier examinations in food workplaces

Mobile examination unit

With our mobile examination unit that comes to your workplace, hundreds of workers are screened without losing working hours. Results are evaluated by the physician; risky findings are shared privately with the worker and, if necessary, referred. The employer is given only collective, anonymous statistics.

Which screenings are mandatory?

Pre-employment examination is mandatory for all workers; the frequency of periodic examination is set as annual, two-yearly or five-yearly according to hazard class and occupational risks. Additional tests apply in jobs with exposure to noise, dust and chemicals. Our physician prepares the programme in writing together with the risk assessment and measurement results and shares it with you at the start of the year.
