Why do you need a health passport?
The Ministry of Health considered it necessary to monitor the impact of harmful production factors on human health. Each factor provokes chronic health problems in its system. For example, when exposed to vibration, the ear suffers; when working with household chemicals, the respiratory system suffers.

Entering data into a health passport allows you not only to prevent a sharp deterioration in your condition, but also to evaluate statistics on the timing of the onset of chronic processes. This is a long-term perspective that can allow you to maintain health at the level of the first signs of decline in vital signs.
According to statistics, over the past 10-20 years, attention to health has decreased significantly. All diseases began to appear at an earlier age. For example, heart attacks and strokes are not uncommon at 30-35 years of age.
Against the background of age-related changes in blood vessels, the risk of work-related injuries also increases. But even with complaints of chest pain, a person does not go to the clinic and continues to work. For fear of losing wages, the patient does not issue a certificate of incapacity for work, becoming a source of illness for others.
Every employer is interested in high quality labor and the final product.
Important! A sick employee is a threat to equipment and damage to the quality of work. An annual examination allows you to detect health problems at an early stage.
If after some time a person is diagnosed with an occupational disease, he is registered at a dispensary. Then he is observed by a specialist in the profile of the disease. If the condition worsens to the level of disability, then the person is recommended to do light work.
When health deteriorates due to occupational factors, the disease is recognized as occupational. The employee receives compensation for this factor, benefits, and subsidies for the purchase of medicines.

- those who provide household services.
Sanitary and hygienic passport of a carcinogenic organization
The sanitary book can be purchased at the Soyuzpechat kiosk; it does not have an individual number. The medical book serves the purpose of ensuring the safety of the population. A health passport is more needed by the employee himself and a conscientious employer.
Unlike a medical sanitary book, a health passport is issued by a health care institution at the place of residence. During the commission, the document is in the clinic, then it is handed over to the employee. The passport has an individual number, which is entered in a special journal. In case of loss, the patient is issued a duplicate passport.
Important! If a person needs both documents at once, then one examination is carried out, and the results are entered into both documents.
