As explained in state Duma Committee on labor, social policy and veterans ‘ Affairs, before the labor code has guaranteed to all workers, regardless of age, one paid working day every three years that could be spent on something to check their health.
However, this provision is at odds with the recommendations of the Ministry of health, according to which citizens upon reaching forty years of age must undergo a medical examination annually.
