Chemical & petrochemical
Occupational Health Services for Chemical and Petrochemical Plants
Chemical and petrochemical plants carry some of the highest occupational health obligations in Indian industry — scheduled processes, hazardous chemicals, and workforces that need surveillance matched to specific exposures. Plan My Health provides OHC staffing, periodic medical examinations and emergency preparedness built for this reality.
Our teams include AFIH-qualified doctors experienced in chemical-exposure surveillance, and our digital registers keep you ready for any factory inspection.
Typical exposures and health risks
Toxic gases and vapours
Chlorine, ammonia, solvents and process vapours require respiratory surveillance — spirometry, chest evaluation and exposure-specific clinical review.
Corrosive and skin-contact chemicals
Acids, alkalis and sensitising agents make skin and eye examination a core part of the periodic medical.
Metals and systemic toxins
Where heavy metals or systemic toxins are involved, blood and urine investigations join the battery as per the applicable schedule.
Noise and heat
Compressors, furnaces and utilities add noise-induced hearing loss and heat stress risk — audiometry and heat-awareness training are standard.
Emergency exposure events
Chemical splash, inhalation and burn response must be drilled, not just documented — including antidote and emergency-medicine readiness at the OHC.
Statutory medicals — general guidance
- Pre-employment medical examination before assignment to hazardous operations.
- Periodic medical examination for workers in scheduled processes, at the frequency the applicable rules prescribe.
- Health register and certificate of fitness maintenance in the prescribed format.
- Occupational health centre / ambulance room with qualified staff where required by headcount or process category.
- Coordination with certifying surgeons where their examination is mandated.
- Legal references here are general guidance. Exact requirements depend on your state factory rules, the processes you run and your headcount — we confirm the applicable rules for each site before proposing a scope.

Frequently asked questions
Which chemical processes attract mandatory medical surveillance?
Processes listed in the Factories Act schedules and state rules — covering a wide range of toxic, corrosive and carcinogenic substances. Share your process list and we will map exactly which operations and workers are covered.
Do you staff OHCs for hazardous-process factories?
Yes — with AFIH-qualified medical officers, trained nurses, emergency medicines including antidotes per your risk assessment, and digital registers.
Can you run medicals across shifts without stopping production?
Yes. We schedule examination batches around shift changeovers, and larger plants get an onsite camp format so workers are examined within 15–25 minutes each.
What emergency preparedness do you provide?
First aid and chemical-response training, emergency drills, OHC emergency-medicine stocking, and ALS/BLS ambulance arrangements for higher-risk sites.
How are records kept for inspections?
Health registers and fitness certificates are maintained in the prescribed format and mirrored digitally, so any record can be produced in seconds.
