Fixed and Mobile Health Services

Conducting health examinations for employees in workplaces is a legal obligation. Health records of employees must be initiated at the time of employment and renewed and stored at legally specified intervals. Timely health screenings help detect potential problems early and ensure necessary preventive measures are taken.

İZKA OSGB – İZKA LABORATORY, with its team of experts, provides a full range of health services including:
Occupational physician services, pre-employment health reports, reports for heavy and dangerous jobs, carrier (portör) screening, health screenings, pulmonary function tests, blood and urine tests, chest X-rays, audiometry, and more.

Our mobile health unit, operated within our organization or in collaboration with our solution partners, allows employees working at specific workplaces to undergo the legally required medical tests related to occupational diseases directly at their workplace.

Just call us for Mobile Health Services.
