- Post
Offer Evaluation is a test administered after completing
the application and hiring process, with employment being conditional
upon performing the essential functions and demonstrating the ability
to “safely” perform the job.
- Return
to Work or Fit for Duty Evaluation is a test administered
to existing employees under several circumstances. This would consist
of evaluation on a voluntary basis, at specific intervals, or on an
individual basis if the employee demonstrates “evidence of problems
related to the job performance or safety” (ADA Technical Assistance
Manual 1-12).
- Functional
Capacity Evaluation is a medical test to measure an employee’s
function post-injury. This allows for assessment of the current medical
condition as it relates to the performance of essential work tasks.
It provides an avenue to determine physical demand levels and work
abilities and offers recommendations for treatment, case closure,
and ability to return to work.
