Work Capacity Evaluation
An objective, comprehensive evaluation of an individual who, due to an injury, health condition or disability, is demonstrating restriction in their functional or vocational capacity for work. The WCE is conducted by both a functional and a vocational evaluator in order to determine safe, suitable and sustainable vocational options for the individual as well as to identify goal orientated, vocational rehabilitation recommendations. The WCE incorporates an individual's current medical/clinical status, work skills, previous employment and educational history, work aptitudes, vocational interests and functional, psychological and social capacity for work.
