Service description
If you are not yet 18 years old and would like to start gainful employment (training, other employment relationships), you must first be examined by a doctor (initial examination). The examination will determine whether you are physically and developmentally suitable for this job. This is to prevent you from suffering damage to your health as a result of your work. After the examination you will receive a certificate. You must present these to your employer. You do not need an examination if you start marginal employment or if you only work for a short time (maximum 2 months). This applies, for example, to a holiday job or a student internship. The state pays the cost of the investigation. You must apply for the initial examination in order for the examination costs to be reimbursed.
