The Marine Med-Track Process for Employees and Portential New Hires : After the Marine Med-Track Physical
Summary
What to Do after the Marine Marine Med-Track Physical
A. Collect your Certificate of Fitness
Two types of fitness certificates are delivered at the time of the medical examination:
- A temporary Med-track fitness certificate (final fitness certificate will be issued once the results of your medical examination have been reviewed by International SOS doctors and approved by the Schlumberger Health Coordinator)
- A NMD/ENG1 fitness certificate delivered by the examining physician and valid for two years.
Note: in case a NMD/ENG1 certified medical center employee is declared unfit or has medical problems that make fitness uncertain, the final decision will be made in Paris by the International SOS Reviewing Doctor along with the Schlumberger International Health Coordinator as soon as the Med-Track questionnaire has been received and processed
B. Collect a hard copy of your Marine Med-Track Questionnaire
At the end of your Marine Med-track examination, the NMD/ENG1 certified medical center will deliver you:
- A hard copy of your Marine Med-track questionnaire completed, stamped and signed by the examining physician
- Your fitness certificates (i.e. the temporary Med-track fitness certificate and the NMD/ENG1 fitness certificate)
Note: the NMD/ENG1 certified medical center will send a copy of your questionnaire to International SOS either by uploading his findings into the eMedtrack website or by using the secured Dropbox.
Processing the Marine Med-Track Report
International SOS
Upon receipt of the information, a Med-Track dedicated physician from International SOS, known as the International SOS Reviewer, located in Paris, performs the analysis of the report.
International SOS inputs the Marine Med-Track date of physical in Quest on a regular and automatic basis within less than 4 weeks after Med-Track reception in Paris.
The Fitness to Work conclusion (Fit, unfit, restricted R1, R2, etc.) is sent to SAP (Personnel database.)
Schlumberger International Health Coordinator
Marine Med-Track reports that present a "fitness to work" problem will be transmitted by International SOS to the Schlumberger International Health Coordinator (Dr. Alex Barbey). He will make the final decision on an employee's fitness to work.
When necessary, he will contact the employee to provide medical information, recommendations or to request further specialized tests.
When required and with the employee's authorization, he will contact the employee's HSE and/or personnel manager to discuss modifications in work location or job function.
There is no transfer of confidential medical information between the doctor and the managers.
Within less than 4 weeks after reception by International SOS of the Med-Track report in Paris, each employee’s individual's medical report will be posted on their private Med-Track website and the Med-Track date will appear in Quest automatically.
- This medical report is the individual's private health document. It is not accessible to managers or anyone other than the employee.
