Statutory Checkups

Climbing with great hight difference

Order

The statutory check-up complies with the legal requirements of AFS 2019:3, AFS 2000:06 and applies to employees who climb with a height difference of more than thirteen meters.

New with service: From January 1st 2024, the Swedish Work Environment Authority's amending regulation 2023:16 comes into force. This means ECG will be replaced by a cardiovascular risk assessment. Read more here.

What it is

Medical Check-up - Climbing with great hight difference is done to reduce health risks of employees working at drop heights. The service should be carried out early. After the check-up, we will issue a certificate of service.

With certain periodicity, additional elements must be included in the investigation, for example before work begins.

The employer is responsible for ensuring that the right medical check-ups are done with the right periodicity.

How it works

  1. Order service
    When you have ordered the service, your employee is booked for the check-up. The time is communicated to you as orderer and the employee.
  2. Fill in health declaration
    Before the visit, the employee fills in a health declaration and brings it to the visit.
  3. Visit
    During the visit, sampling and examination are carried out, as well as an assessment regarding the connection between any problems and the employee's current work situation.
  4. Feedback
    If the company doctor assesses that the work does not, or can be suspected of, an increased risk of ill-health, a certificate of service and Response to medical check-up are issued, which are sent to you as orderer via secure e-mail.

    The assessment may also result in the employee being at risk of ill health or in need of further sampling. A certificate of service is not issued in these cases and you as an employer will then be contacted.
