English Preventive Medical Examination

Vital Solutions offers a complete English preventive medical examination! The entire communication, including the PME questionnaire and online environment where employees can view their PME results, is available in English.

When to conduct a PMO?

A Periodic Medical Examination (PMO) is a mandatory component under the Dutch Working Conditions Act (ARBO). Organizations are required to offer this examination to their employees on a regular basis. The specific tests offered depend on the risks present within your organization, which often emerge from the Risk Inventory & Evaluation (RI&E). The PMO helps employees gain insight into their own physical and mental health, while also enabling organizations to identify potential issues. The results of such a health examination contribute to building sustainable employability.

Is a PME mandatory?

A Periodic Medical Examination is a mandatory component within the Occupational Health and Safety Act. Organizations are required to offer this periodically to their employees. The specific examinations offered depend on the risks within your organization, which are often identified through the Risk Inventory and Evaluation (RI&E). The PME helps employees gain insight into their own physical and mental health, while also assisting organizations in identifying any potential bottlenecks. If you have a question about PME, please check out our frequently asked questions section at the bottom of the page or feel free to contact us.

All questions about the preventive medical examination

A PME or preventive medical examination is an examination in which you, as an employer, have the health of your staff checked. Possible problems are identified (both mentally and physically) on the basis of a PME questionnaire and a physical examination. With the advice from the preventive medical examination, you can actively work on vitality in the workplace.
The costs of a preventive medical examination vary and depend on the form in which it is offered. The broader the research, the higher the costs will of course be. A preventive medical examination at Vital Solutions is possible from just a few tens of euros per employee! Request a no-obligation information package to receive the prices.
A PME examination is much more extensive than the POHE (Periodic Occupational Health Examination). The POHE only examines work-related factors, but a PME also includes mental well-being, for example. The POHE is increasingly being replaced by a PME. The reason for this is simple: in recent years, absenteeism caused by psychological problems has increased increasingly. By identifying these problems during an investigation, absenteeism due to illness within companies can be successfully reduced.

Yes, it is actively monitored by the SZW Inspectorate, the department responsible for inspecting compliance with the ARBO Act.

Since 2018, significantly more money has been made available for these inspections: 13 million was available in 2018, 25 million in 2019 and this will increase to 50 million in 2022.

An additional PME Research offers an extension to the standard PME package. Depending on the sector in which an organization operates, additional research may be desirable. For example, employees who spend a lot of time at a computer often opt for a vision and screen examination. Employees who are frequently exposed to noise benefit greatly from an auditory examination.

The advantages of a preventive medical examination are that physical and mental complaints are identified in a timely manner and that an appropriate plan of action can be drawn up immediately.

This can prevent long-term employee absences in the future.

Furthermore, many employees indicate that they appreciate that their health is taken seriously. This makes a positive contribution to employee motivation, which increases overall employee satisfaction.

You can choose from an online PME, a Standard PME or a Supplementary PME.

Every employer is obliged to offer its employees a Preventive Medical Examination (PME), regardless of the size of the organization. We are happy to help you identify which PME research suits your organization.

We go further than just carrying out a PME. In this way, we make the results of the Preventive Medical Examination immediately visible in an online portal. Every employee can log in here in his/her own environment. The online portal contains the following: the results of the research, concrete lifestyle advice and an extensive management report (also accessible to HR at organizational level).
A PME investigation is subject to professional secrecy. This means that no personal information about the employee at personal level is shared with the employer. However, an anonymized standard analysis can be made for management.
We carry out a preventive medical examination as standard on location (at the client). Are there no options to implement the PME within your organization? If desired, the preventive medical examination can be organized at our office or in an external space.

Would you like to have preventive medical research carried out within your organization? Then you’ve come to the right place at Vital Solutions!

We guide both large and small companies towards a vital organization with sustainably employable employees.

Our standard basic preventive medical examination consists of a digital examination and questionnaire, extensive physical examination (including blood test), 1-1 consultation with a lifestyle coach, access to our own online portal with all research results and an extensive management report (at organizational level).

The costs of a Preventive Medical Examination are borne by the employer. In some cases there are options for co-financing by the health insurer (for example, if there is a collective insurance policy). Although performing a preventive medical examination costs money initially, it can yield several benefits in the long term.

In any case, the following matters are taken into account during an ARBO inspection:

Have prevention officers been designated and is their expertise appropriate to the tasks to be performed?

Is there a contract with a certified expert or (occupational health and safety) service? Are employees offered the periodically required preventive medical examination?

If one or more of these components are not met, a fine can be imposed immediately. The amount of this fine depends on the size of the organization and how many areas the organization is at fault. However, the fine often amounts to several tens of thousands of euros.
