Why Medical Check-Ups Matter
Medical Check-Ups Matter
When you employ foreign workers, ensuring they go for required medical check-ups is both a legal obligation and a smart way to protect your workforce. The Ministry of Manpower mandates that all new Work Permit holders undergo an initial medical examination upon arriving in Singapore. This exam checks for infectious diseases (like tuberculosis, HIV, syphilis, malaria) and confirms the worker is fit for employment.
Initial Examination
All new Work Permit holders must complete medical screening within 2 weeks of arrival before the pass can be issued.
6-Monthly
Check-Ups
Female Work Permit holders require medical screening every 6 months, testing for pregnancy and infectious diseases.
Important: If a worker fails the exam or if an employer neglects to send them for their check-up, the Work Permit could be revoked and the worker may have to stop work. Compliance is critical.
How We Coordinate and Assist
We act as your dedicated admin assistant and compliance officer rolled into one. ASK Connections completely relieves employers of this burden, making sure your foreign employees get the health screenings they need – on time and with zero hassle.
Scheduling and Logistics
As soon as a Work Permit is approved or when a periodic exam is due, we schedule the medical examination at an MOM-designated clinic. We can even arrange on-site check-ups for groups of workers if needed, eliminating the back-and-forth
Reminders and Notifications
Forgetting a deadline won’t be an issue. We keep a calendar of all your foreign workers’ medical exam due dates and send timely reminders to both you and the employee. This proactive approach means you never scramble at the last minute or risk missing a required check.
Paperwork and Follow-through
We handle all forms, including MOM medical examination forms and clinic referral letters. We ensure results are properly submitted to MOM’s system. We close the loop – no loose ends for you to worry about.
Compliance Management
If a worker’s medical result requires action (test comes back positive or pregnancy detected), we advise you immediately on next steps per MOM regulations. We guide you through necessary procedures while being sensitive and supportive.
Ongoing Monitoring
For long-term employees, we don’t set and forget. We maintain records of each worker’s last check-up and next due date. We become your external compliance department for worker health checks – you’ll never have to track this in a spreadsheet again.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Medical Check-Ups
Questions
About Medical Check-Ups
Are medical check-ups mandatory for all foreign workers?
Yes, MOM mandates that all new Work Permit holders undergo an initial medical examination upon arriving in Singapore. Certain workers (like female WP holders) require regular 6-monthly screenings. We manage all scheduling and submissions.
When must the initial medical exam be completed?
Within 2 weeks of the worker’s arrival in Singapore, before the Work Permit can be issued. We arrange appointments promptly to avoid delays.
What tests are included in the medical exam?
Tests typically include screening for tuberculosis, HIV, syphilis, malaria, and pregnancy (for female workers). The exam confirms the worker is fit for employment.
Do you arrange the Settling-In Programme (SIP)?
Yes, we coordinate SIP bookings where required, ensuring workers complete the mandatory orientation on time.
What happens if a worker fails the medical exam?
If a test comes back positive for serious infectious diseases or if a female worker is pregnant (for restricted occupations), MOM regulations may require Work Permit cancellation and repatriation. We’ll advise you on next steps and handle procedures correctly and sensitively.
How long do medical check-ups take?
The appointment itself usually takes 1-2 hours depending on clinic and tests. Results typically come within a few days. We secure the earliest slots possible and track results for submission to MOM.
