In recent years, however, FCEs have also been used to measure cognitive capacity to assess necessary variables found in workers who have suffered from brain injuries.
FCEs are vital for the safety and well-being of both the employer and the employee. For the employees, it ensures a safe transition from injury and disability to function and employment. Employers, on the other hand, have a greater chance of maximizing their production output. The FCE can also help them create a safer workplace, making them less vulnerable to Workers’ Comp claims and lawsuits over alleged safety breaches.
