A functional capacity evaluation (FCE) is an assessment of your current work abilities. This evaluation is more lengthy and thorough. An occupational therapist or a physical therapist, completes the FCE. The FCE answers questions related to employment planning or returning to a specific job. You may need an FCE due to your physical or cognitive abilities. The FCE consists of:

Ability testing
An interview
Physical screening
Work simulation, if appropriate

Safety, reliability, and validity are key components of this assessment.
