SERVICE OVERVIEW

What you can expect

What are job demands and functional assessments?

Understanding a job’s physical and cognitive demands — and how a worker performs against them — is essential for sound decisions across the employment lifecycle.

Our job demands and functional assessment services bridge the gap between medical findings and operational decisions. Our multidisciplinary team provides objective, evidence-based insights — whether you’re determining fit-for-duty status, planning accommodation, or supporting return-to-work.

These services are commonly used in hiring, post-injury rehabilitation, long-term disability management, and workplace ergonomic improvement initiatives.
