Occupational Health care

We are probably the only company in Finland which offers occupational health care without any monthly fees. At the moment we have some 450 companies as our clients. Our pricing is based solely according to the services actually needed.

For new companies, our prices (within a radius of less than 10 km) related to the contracts, job surveys, action plans and other documents related to the contracts are 300 euros altogether. At the end of the financial year, the companies will recover 60% of their costs related to the preparation of the job report and the action plan as a Kela compensation (KL1 category operations).

At least once a year we must be in contact with companies, check the contact information
and whether there are any significant changes in operations or personnel lists, review what has been done during the previous year and make a plan for the current year. Our occupational health nurses will contact you, or you can be in touch to us. The price of the annual update for 2022 is € 100 or depending on the time spent, if more than a hour is needed. You will receive 60% Kela compensation for the upgrade.

Every five years at the latest, a new job survey must be carried out, ie. come to visit the workplace. In this context, the above and update the action plan will be done. The price of the report and the update of the action plan in 2023 will start at € 200, of which 60% will also be returned from Kela. (For a completely new customer, a job report and preparation of an action plan is € 300). If we do not get in touch with the company despite our efforts, or if statutory matters or invoices are not handled, we will have to terminate the company’s contract.

Our laboratory prices are very affordable. For example, a comprehensive workplace care laboratory package costs only 145 euros + sampling 15.50 euros.

Ultrasound examinations are performed by our own X-ray doctor Eero Puntila, but we perform standard X-ray images and magnetic resonance images at Synlab, to which we have a direct connection.


In 2023, the compensation paid by Kela will focus on preventive occupational health care. Compensation percentages (KL1 and 2) are the former 60% and 50%, but the maximum amounts focus on prevention. In other words, health checks can and should be carried out in accordance with the action plans and the requirements of the law! Reimbursable costs for medical treatment KL2 may be only 4/10 of the above maximum amounts.
