Customized PAGO: insight into risks, grip on health. Sure.
As an employer, you want to prevent your people from dropping out of work. And that starts with insight. The Periodic Occupational Health Examination (PAGO) helps to timely identify and address occupational risks. ZekerArbo offers a PAGO that is completely tailored to your company, sector and employees. This way, you keep a grip on sustainable employability and meet the legal obligation.
What is a PAGO?
A PAGO (Periodic Occupational Health Examination) is something you must offer as an employer. That is stated in article 18 of the Working Conditions Act. The examination is linked to the risks you have already identified in your RI&E. With a PAGO you bring health risks in the workplace into focus. The goal is to discover health risks arising from work in good time. Think about:
- Back and joint pain from physical work
- Work stress with high workload or mental strain
- Hearing damage from noise
- Exposure to hazardous substances
💡 Note: employees are not required to participate, but it is important to actively offer this and communicate it well.
Why a PAGO through ZekerArbo?
At ZekerArbo , we don't believe in standard lists. Every company is different, every workplace requires customization. That's why we tailor the PAGO to:
- The industry and working conditions
- The main health risks within your company
- The insights from your RI&E (Risk Inventory and Evaluation).
- Your existing vitality or absenteeism approach
👉 The result is a practical and focused study that really delivers, for you and your employees.
The PAGO: tailored to your business situation
Sick leave varies by industry. For example, back pain is more common in a company with a lot of physical labor. And work-related stress is again more common in a highly competitive corporate culture. To identify risks, an employer is obliged by the Occupational Health and Safety Decree to offer employees a periodic examination: the Periodic Occupational Health Examination (PAGO). Employees are not required to participate, but it is certainly recommended. A PAGO at ZekerArbo is aimed at discovering work-related health risks for employees and intended to prevent these risks as much as possible.

A properly conducted PAGO gives you:
