Med-Check

What is Med-Check?

Med-Check is a medical examination performed, where legally acceptable, in each country for Home Country Commuter (HCC) and Home Country Resident (HCR) employees. It is managed by the Schlumberger Country Doctor or by a designated Schlumberger Country health professional.

Med-Check examinations should be performed in Schlumberger approved medical centers in each country.

The cost of Med-Check examinations should be covered by the Schlumberger location.

 

The Objectives

To ensure that HCR and HCC employees are fit to work in their home country and to maintain a confidential medical record for each individual that can be used in case of emergencies, hospitalization or medical evacuation.

 

The Med-Check Examination

The Med-Check examination includes:

• A complete clinical examination
• Blood, urine and stool analysis
• Chest X-ray
• Electrocardiogram
• Vaccination updating where required

For pre-employment examinations, Med-Check also includes drug screening where legally applicable.

 

Frequency of Med-Check examinations

Unless otherwise defined by local legislation, a Med-Check examination shall be performed upon pre-employment and every 3 years thereafter.
