Occupational medicine services focus on diagnosing, treating, and preventing work‑related injuries and illnesses. This includes pre-employment physicals, functional evaluations, and health surveillance.
The main aim is to protect worker health and safety by assessing fitness to work, preventing occupational disease, and promoting a safe, healthy work environment.
One of the most frequently reported issues is stress, depression, or anxiety, as mental health concerns significantly impact work-related health.
You can expect inquiries about medical history, current conditions, medications, previous work-related injuries, and exposure to workplace hazards.
Wear comfortable, business-casual clothes. If your job involves physical tasks like lifting or climbing, wear similar work clothes so your functional capacity can be assessed.
Avoid heavy meals, alcohol, or strenuous activity before the assessment. Bring a list of medications and health documents, but do not take non-prescribed drugs beforehand.
Avoid heavy, fatty meals and limit caffeine, as these can affect vital signs, blood sugar, and certain lab tests.
“OHC” stands for Occupational Health Center, a dedicated medical service that handles workplace health assessments, injury treatment, and preventive care.
OHCs typically require a qualified team (doctors, occupational nurses, hygienists), confidentiality, and regular health monitoring of employees.
