Free Lunch & Learn

Making Better Return-to-Work Decisions with Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs)

Wednesday 29 July | 12:00–1:00pm (BST)

Every day, clinicians, occupational health professionals and commissioners make decisions that influence whether someone can safely return to work.

But how confident can we be that those decisions are based on objective evidence rather than subjective opinion?

Join Work Health Academy for a free one-hour Lunch & Learn exploring how Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs) can strengthen clinical reasoning, improve confidence in return-to-work recommendations, and provide a more structured approach to assessing functional capacity.

During this session we'll cover

What differentiates an FCE from a standard functional assessment
When an FCE adds value to return-to-work planning
The principles of a robust, standardised and evidence-based FCE
How objective testing and triangulation improve decision making
Practical examples of how FCE findings can support clearer recommendations

Who should attend?

This session is suitable for:

Occupational Therapists
Physiotherapists
Occupational Health Practitioners
Occupational Health Managers
Case Managers
Insurers
Rehabilitation Professionals
Employers with responsibility for workplace health
Anyone involved in commissioning Functional Capacity Evaluations
Anyone who utilises or would potentially utilise FCE reports and recommendations.
