The Employee Fitness Certificate is a mandatory document in the Philippine employment landscape, required under various provisions of the Labor Code and DOLE regulations. This certificate serves as an official medical clearance confirming an individual's physical and mental capacity to perform their job responsibilities safely and effectively. The document is typically required during pre-employment medical examinations, annual health assessments, or when returning to work after a significant illness or injury. The Employee Fitness Certificate must be issued by a licensed physician and should include specific health assessments relevant to the employee's role and industry. It plays a crucial role in workplace safety and health management, helping employers ensure compliance with occupational health standards while protecting both the employee's and employer's interests.
