Hello, I would like to ask if the employer is required or mandated to release a pre-employment medical certificate or record to a former employee for submission to ECC or SSS requirement? Why require the said document since the employee would not have been hired if he was not fit to work? Lastly, is this requirement by ECC or SSS indispensable? Thank you. Respectfully, Lester N. Cusi
