Occupational health services are not a one-time check-up, but rather a continuous process, which is why we offer our clients customized occupational health services for their industries to help them maintain compliance and keep their workers healthy. The services offered at the WeCare Clinics throughout Kuala Lumpur are occupational health services that include workplace evaluations, hearing, lung tests, and health checks for employees, which we coordinate through our clinics in Ukay Boulevard, Desa Melawati, and Setiawangsa. We are here to help your company meet its needs in terms of compliance and health.

What Occupational Health Services Cover

Occupational health is more than just a routine medical examination, it takes into account the impact that workplace conditions have on the well-being of employees. This is what our service is all about, including:

Occupational Medical Examinations

Other than individual testing, most employers have a requirement of medical examinations for employees for the following reasons among others:

• Medical pre-employment clearance – checking whether the candidate has the necessary medical clearance to be able to carry out the specific work
• Periodic health assessment – assessing the health of employees who are in work that exposes them to risks like noise, dust, or chemicals
• Fitness-to-work assessment – checking whether the employee has the capacity to carry out their work after being ill or injured or where there is a change of work description
• Role-related medical requirement – certain roles or industries may require medical clearance as a precondition of employment

The medical examination is normally integrated into our Workplace Assessment service, depending on your requirements.

Why Occupational Health Matters for Employers

• Compliance with laws – some industries have legal regulations relating to monitoring of worker health especially those in occupations associated with noise, dust and chemicals.
• Identifying health hazards early on – routine health monitoring can help identify occupational conditions such as hearing loss and respiratory problems early enough.
• Reducing liability – having your worker’s health monitored and documented helps show that your organization has done its best to protect the health of workers.
• Aids safer job placement – occupational health checks can ensure that you place workers in jobs which match their health condition.
• Enhances worker confidence – showing an interest in health care will help build confidence among workers.
