2-2.2 Physical Examination (Medical Screening)
All food employees shall be medically screened for evidence of communicable
disease prior to initial assignment in food service. The health screening
does not normally include a physical examination but shall be sufficient to
detect evidence of diseases that may be transmitted by food. Subsequent
health screening (e.g. annual evaluation) is not routinely required.
The health screening may be conducted by a physician or a non-physician
health care provider, e.g., environmental health officer, nurse corps
officer, preventive medicine technician, independent duty hospital
corpsman, civilian nurse and civilian environmental health technician.
Civilian food employees may be screened by local military medical
facilities or they must present documentary evidence, acceptable to the
local medical authority, that a complete and thorough health screening has

the local medical authority.  An example of this form is found in Appendix
C.
