What are the Different Types of Wellness Program?
The health checkup for Factory Workers may vary as per the job profile of an employee or the nature of the manufacturing process. Healthy employees have higher productivity levels and are better at managing work-life balance. Whereas, unhealthy employees are sure to make errors that will impact the organizational growth.
As per The Factories Act, 1948 a pre-employment medical examination is done by a qualified medical practitioner to ascertain and certify fitness to work in a factory. The certificate of fitness is only valid for twelve months from the date of issue.
Pre-employment health check-up helps the organization to understand the health status and well-being of the new candidate. Pre-employment check-ups ensure that the selected candidates are medically fit for the job.
Annual health Check-ups help us to know the underlying cause and reason for the low work productivity and give the employee & the organization a chance to improve on it, preventing further harm to one’s self and the company.
Employee Drug Screening helps the organization to identify the use of drugs early on by employees and to maintain a safe and secure work environment free of toxicity.
Customized Health checkup packages allow you to choose a package depending on the number of employees which would suit your organization’s needs. Every organization has different needs and working environments for their employees; hence a pre-designed health package may not be suitable.

What are the Health Checkups required for Workers Engaged in Hazardous Occupations?
A factory engaged in hazardous processes should get its workers medically examined by a qualified medical practitioner. Workers employed in a “hazardous process” are medically examined by a Factory Medical Officer before employment and thereafter at periodical intervals.
If the medical findings reveal that the worker has manifested signs and symptoms of any notifiable disease (as specified in the Third Schedule of the Factories Act), then the examined worker could be taken away from the process for health protection. However, the worker taken away may be employed again in the same process after obtaining the Fitness Certificate from the qualified medical practitioner as per the Factory Act along with form 7.
