Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs)
An FCE is an objective, standardized assessment of a worker’s ability to perform job-related physical tasks. We use FCEs to:
- Determine safe return-to-work capacity
- Establish work restrictions and limitations
- Provide objective documentation for claims management
- Assess maximum medical improvement
Our FCEs are thorough, defensible, and delivered with detailed written reports.

- Job-specific task simulation
