Functional/Work Capacity Evaluation

Service Description

Functional Capacity or Work Capacity Evaluations are a full day assessment taking as much as 8 hours which focus on your client's capacity to perform work or functional activity. The assessment uses standardized tests and non-standardized tests to determine mobility, strength, and endurance as well as the individual's ability to obtain and maintain a productive competitively employable work pace. Standardized tests of manual dexterity, positional tolerance, strength, and productivity are only part of the picture at the OAC. OAC uses motion capture technology to track positioning, speed of movement, quality of movement, and biomechanics in order to measure and verify work capacity. OAC is also the only assessment centre in BC incorporating comprehensive work simulation using the most modern Virtual Reality work sim including heavy equipment operating, driving (car and truck), welding, nursing, dentistry.
