Instant personal scorecard plus corporate summary report
Vital signs are the starting point of every screening programme. Blood pressure and pulse reveal hypertension risk, while height, weight and waist measurement outline obesity and metabolic risk.
The EK-2 Pre-Employment and Periodic Examination Form lists blood pressure, pulse, height, weight and body mass index among the physical examination fields. These measurements are core data for the occupational physician's fitness-for-work assessment and are tracked comparatively at periodic examinations.
Bioimpedance body composition analysis, by contrast, is not a health surveillance test but an additional service for corporate health programmes. Body fat, muscle mass and visceral fat are measured and each employee receives a personal scorecard. The data supports corporate health programmes and nutrition counselling referrals.

Questions about this service
What happens if an employee's blood pressure is high?
The measurement is repeated after rest. If the value stays high, the result is reported to your occupational physician and the employee is referred for assessment and follow-up.
Should every employee have a body analysis?
No. Body composition analysis is not a legal requirement and is added at the request of businesses planning a corporate health programme.
