The Occupational Health and Safety Act defines ‘medical surveillance’ as a planned programme of periodic examinations/medicals for employees. Employers must identify any potential health hazards and evaluate the risks they pose to employees’ health, taking all reasonable and practical steps to mitigate those hazards and risks. Such compliance protocols are easier said than done; however, Workforce Healthcare makes occupational medical surveillance simple and accessible for organisations of every size across South Africa

Professional medical surveillance, occupational medicals and medical screenings

Ensuring employees are fit for work and meeting your obligations under the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Act requires timely, reliable, and accessible occupational health services. Workforce Healthcare operates a network of occupational health clinics across South Africa, providing comprehensive medical examinations and statutory medical surveillance tailored to the specific hazards of your workplace.

Whether you require pre-employment and baseline medicals, periodic occupational medical examinations, exit medicals, or specialised hazard-based testing, our mobile or onsite screening units deliver efficient, high-quality assessments customised to your needs, and with minimal disruption to your operations. Our experienced clinical teams help you protect employee health, meet legislative requirements, and maintain accurate medical records to support regulatory audits.

Onsite medical screening solutions

Our onsite clinics are expertly equipped with all the medical equipment relevant to your needs, this can include x-ray machines, lung function tests, audio and vision testing equipment, blood pressure and cholesterol testing capabilities, and much more. Our onsite clinics can also be fitted with emergency equipment to provide lifesaving procedures at hazardous work sites, such as mines.

Mobile medical screening solutions

Smaller companies or those in extreme isolation have no need for a costly permanent onsite clinic, and so our specialised mobile clinics allow for us to easily travel and conduct medical screening examinations on site. Trained healthcare professionals will travel to your premises in one of our specialised mobile clinics to conduct all manner of occupational healthcare services whenever the need arises. Our 9 mobile units, managed from our 6 regional clinics, provide the care you need to ensure your employees are healthy, safe and compliant with current regulation.
