Workplace injuries and illnesses can be costly for both the employer and the employee. In some cases, it’s difficult to determine when an employee is ready to return to work.
Compcare Urgent Care offers a functional capacity evaluation (FCE) that can help employers make informed decisions about their employees’ readiness to return to work. An FCE compares the individual’s health status, body functions and structures to the demands of the job and work environment. In essence, an FCE’s primary purpose is to evaluate a person’s ability to participate in work.
