Basic information about pre-employment medical examinations
For some industries, preliminary medical examinations are mandatory.
But regardless of the registration form, the specifics of the activity, the organization is subject to obligations to monitor the health status of subordinates. Therefore, it is advisable for all employees to undergo medical examinations both upon entry to work and on a periodic basis. A private person can go to the clinic, but he must have a referral for a paid medical examination from his place of work. This document specifies what kind of certificate should be issued as a result. For some categories of applicants, it is mandatory to obtain a medical record. This document must be updated annually.
Often an employer enters into an agreement with a hospital. He sends applicants for an initial medical examination here. At the same time, the employer pays for the medical examinations; it is inexpensive.
In what cases is a medical examination necessary for work?
Employment does not always begin immediately after a successful interview. In a number of professions (security, state secrets, work at high altitude, investigative agencies), before taking up a position, you are required to undergo a medical examination for work.
Without successfully passing a medical examination, if it is mandatory, it is impossible to get a job in certain organizations. You should ensure that you have a certificate in advance so that you do not have to share the position with another candidate who will already have the document from the clinic in hand.
You can learn about the need to undergo a medical examination directly at the interview. As a rule, future employers of those applicants who made a favorable impression immediately notify them of the need to undergo this procedure. When applying for employment in which industries (facilities, territorial zones) is it mandatory to have a document from the clinic confirming a successfully completed medical examination:
- investigative authorities;
- state secret (work at classified, special state facilities);
- the far north (enterprises located in certain regions with harsh climatic conditions);
- public service;
- enterprises with special, harmful working conditions (certificate under order 302n).
In each case, the list of doctors required and tests required differs. Employers may require visiting specialists beyond the listed list if this is due to special working conditions in the company.
What to do if an employee does not pass the medical examination?
Sometimes such a nuisance happens that the applicant has not passed the medical examination. He will be given a conclusion about certain medical contraindications, which can be either temporary or without specifying a time.
Attention
If health problems are temporary - no more than 4 months, then the employee may be offered another vacancy for a certain period, and then transferred to the desired position. If the contraindications are more serious, then the employer does not have the right to hire such an employee (Article 76 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). He can only give him an alternative vacancy if one exists.
For the applicant himself, medical contraindications are a warning that this job is not suitable for him and will lead to even greater health problems. So, you should not neglect the medical opinion - not only by force of the law, but also in your own interests.
Is it possible to refuse a medical examination?
Refusal to undergo a medical examination is disadvantageous. Employers are unlikely to agree to break the law and rules established by the company for the sake of a new employee. Therefore, if you need to undergo a medical examination for work, it is better not to refuse the procedure, but to start looking for a reliable medical organization where you can get tested quickly and inexpensively, as well as go through all the medical specialists, as soon as possible.
In Moscow, the medical commission “Spravki-Vse” enjoys a good reputation. We issue ready-made documents within 30-60 minutes after visiting the clinic. This is faster than most private and municipal hospitals.

The procedure for conducting mandatory preliminary and periodic medical examinations (examinations) of employees was approved by Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development dated April 12, 2011 No. 302n.
According to this order, the preparation of a document on suitability for work in a specific position involves the following steps:
- Receiving a referral from a potential employer to undergo a preliminary medical examination (clause 7), which must contain all the details and information (clause 8).
- Contacting a medical organization with which the company has concluded a corresponding agreement (its address is indicated in the referral), with the documents listed in clause 9 (the main ones are a passport and a referral).
- Passage of all medical specialists, the list of which is established in relation to specific harmful and dangerous factors and conditions.
- Presentation of the received certificate to the employer for registration of employment.
The list of necessary doctors to undergo a medical examination is given in an article on this topic.
How much does it cost to get a certificate
The price of the certificate is not approved at the legislative level, and depends on the medical institution in which the employee undergoes a medical examination and how urgently the document is needed. As a rule, the cost varies from 1500 to 4000 rubles.
Features of a medical examination upon admission to work
For many job seekers, undergoing a medical examination during employment becomes a real adventure. Not all clinics offering certificates for work have the necessary staff of doctors for medical examinations, as well as equipment and other conditions for taking tests. This forces citizens to run from one hospital to another in order to obtain the coveted certificates from doctors, which is inconvenient, too long and expensive.
If you contact the medical commission “Spravki-Vse”, you will not have to look for other clinics to take tests or go through the remaining doctors. All the necessary specialists work with us, which allows you to undergo a medical examination in the shortest possible time.
The nuances of a medical examination for working in our clinic:
- minimum documents - take a passport. Sometimes a referral from the employer is required, for example, for a medical examination at work under order 302n. Typically, employers are aware of the document and issue it themselves upon learning of the employee’s intention to undergo a medical examination for work;
- fast service - with us you can not only see doctors, but also undergo relevant tests;
- low prices – pay in full and save up to 80% on medical services during an initial or periodic medical examination at work.

This procedure is necessary to assess the health status of the future employee and suitability for the future position.
Medical examination at work: which doctors and tests are required?
Passing a medical examination involves visiting several doctors and undergoing tests. For each individual certificate or company, the list of doctors and services may vary. Typically, a medical examination includes an examination of:

Rights and responsibilities of the parties
The procedure for undergoing a medical examination involves the responsibility of both the employer and the employee.
An employee, when required by law, must agree to a medical examination upon entering work. This is both his right and duty. Of course, before starting a new job, he can refuse to undergo a medical examination, basing his refusal on the fact that he is not an employee of the enterprise and is not obliged to follow the instructions of his potential employer before signing an employment contract. However, then the company administration has every legal right not to hire him (Article 69 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).
If an employer violates the law and hires a new employee without a medical examination, then in accordance with Part 3 of Art. 5.27.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, he will suffer certain administrative punishment. The specified article of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation provides for the imposition of a monetary fine:
- in the amount of 15 to 25 thousand rubles per official;
- in the amount of 15 to 25 thousand rubles per individual entrepreneur;
- ranging from 110 to 130 thousand rubles. to a legal entity.
When hiring without a medical examination is repeated, then in accordance with Part 5 of Art. 5.27.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, the perpetrators will be punished:
- a fine of 30 to 40 thousand rubles. or disqualification for a period of one to three years for officials;
- a fine of 30 to 40 thousand rubles. for individual entrepreneurs or administrative suspension of activities for up to three months;
- from 100 to 200 thousand rubles. or suspension of the enterprise’s activities for a period of up to three months.

Initial medical examination for work and renewal of certificate
When applicants get a job that requires a medical examination, they go to the clinic to undergo doctors and receive the coveted initial certificate. But after a certain period, you should undergo a medical examination again to confirm your state of health and the ability to continue working in this organization under the same conditions, including a certain climate zone (relevant for the harsh northern regions).
Extension of a medical certificate in our medical center is carried out under the same conditions as obtaining an initial certificate. You must make an appointment, pay for services and go through all the doctors. Only after this can a final conclusion be obtained.
Unlike illegal offices, we do not sell certificates without actually passing a medical examination. Our clinic has all the appropriate licenses and values its reputation. Therefore, here you will receive high-quality and fast service, as well as an official document that you can safely present to an organization of any level.
Conducting periodic and preliminary medical examinations for organizations
All subjects are required to:
- clinical blood test (hemoglobin, platelets, erythrocytes, leukocytes, leukocyte formula, color index, ESR;
- clinical urine analysis (protein, sugar, specific gravity, sediment microscopy);
- electrocardiography;

- health passport (3 – 5 working days).
- medical reports (3 – 5 working days).
- final report based on the results of the medical examination (2 weeks).
What does the document include?
In order for a medical examination certificate to be accepted without problems, it must meet certain requirements. Our documents are made on special forms and have an official form. The certificate contains information about the clinic, the persons responsible for issuing the document and its owner.
The doctor who issues the conclusion puts his signature and seal, and the medical institution’s mark is also affixed to the certificate. The document describes in detail whether its owner has health problems or characteristics that prevent him from working in a certain industry.
Features for different categories of workers
Among the categories undergoing medical examination, the Labor Code singles out people performing heavy and dangerous work, transport workers, trade and food industry workers, employees of children's and medical institutions. Under special control are those who stay on long-term (several months) business trips and work in the Far North.
For those who work with children and food, a more thorough inspection is carried out. All staff of child care institutions must undergo it, since children are at risk for various respiratory diseases.

A thorough medical examination is also carried out in the transport sector, since those involved in transporting people are responsible not only for their lives, but also for the health and safety of passengers.
Catering workers can infect people with various viruses that enter the body with food. In addition to standard examinations, catering workers require a laboratory report confirming the absence of E. coli and other viruses. The same requirements apply to employees working in trade.

Answers to frequently asked questions
Question No. 1: I am employed by a private organization, I need to undergo a medical examination, where is the best place to do this?
Answer: Any medical institution that has permission to carry out primary medical examinations is suitable for this.
The administration of such an institution must remember that it is fully responsible for the quality and completeness of medical examinations. The licensing of medical institutions is carried out by the Health Departments of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Knowing the license number, name or details of a medical institution, you can always find out whether it has the right to conduct preliminary medical examinations. To do this, you should use the search on the website of the Federal Service for Surveillance in Healthcare. An employee has the right to undergo a medical examination at his place of residence, but this is only possible if the employer has an agreement with the medical institution where the employee is going to go. Otherwise, the applicant will need to present to his employer documents from a medical institution that confirm his right to conduct PME.
