Employability Assessments – Jointly with WorkFocus Australia

An analysis of an injured person’s level of employability, with a focus on earning capacity. The assessment determines vocational and physical capacity, which is assessed against labour market factors. The assessment consists of a:

  • Vocational Assessment - this determines what someone is vocationally suited to given their education, previous experience and transferable skills.
  • Physical Work Performance Evaluation (PWPE) - this determines whether the person can physically perform the vocational options generated from the Vocational Assessment.
  • Labour Market Analysis

The first two components of this process are carried out by Psychologists and Occupational Therapists from our associated company WorkFocus Australia.

Cost: varies with number of options identified
(approximately $350 per hour)
