A Vocational Assessment is an objective evaluation of an individual’s current and expected capacity for work, their experience, qualifications, transferrable skills and vocational goals, which helps to identify suitable job options. A Labour Market Analysis may also be completed to determine which of the job options are most viable giving consideration to the location, job demand, income and market trends.
When an injury or illness may be preventing a safe return to work in your pre-injury role or workplace, a vocational assessment is a valuable tool to guide the next steps to returning to work. The assessment is conducted by a qualified rehabilitation counsellor or psychologist, under the supervision of an Approved Workplace Rehabilitation Provider (WRP).
