2. Personal health history (ambulatory card) or form issued by a family doctor no. 027/a. For persons who do not have a valid form issued by a family doctor no. 027/a (on the state of health), whether the clinic where the patient is registered is outside the city of Šiauliai, as well as those who are not registered in Lithuania, a mandatory health check-up is performed on site (examinations, electrocardiogram).
3. The personal medical book (Health Passport No. 048/a) or the mandatory health checkup medical certificate form (No. 047/a) filled out by the employer must indicate the risk factors.
4. If a lung x-ray (taken within a period of no later than 1 year) is required for the issuance of the certificate, the referral for the lung x-ray is prescribed by Rezus.lt family doctors. In Šiauliai, an X-ray can be taken upon arrival at the clinic at the address Gumbinės st. 33C. The price of an X-ray photo is 15.00 Eur.

When is it necessary to perform a preventive health check-up for work?

• Employees need a health certificate for work, if the doctor does not specify another health check-up date, the employee's health (in the presence of the factors listed in the table) is checked once every 2 years.
• For employees who are allowed to work only after being checked in advance and then periodically checked for infectious diseases, the employee's health is checked once a year.

The health of employees is checked in order to:

• to assess whether employed and employed persons can do a specific job under specific working conditions;
• to protect the health of employees from possible exposure to occupational risk factors (injuries, etc.);
• prevent or diagnose occupational diseases as early as possible.

Refusal to undergo a health check-up, when such a check-up is mandatory for the employee, is a gross violation of work duties.
