Staff Health Screening May Be Tax-Free
According to a motion attached to the 2017 tax bill, employee health screening costs would be tax-free for employers. The bill would also make physiotherapy and psychotherapy exempt from taxes if paid by the employer.

The tax benefit would only be available if screening and other services are available to all employees, not only executives.

According to estimates, the change would increase the annual number of health screened persons by a few hundred thousand.
