A Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE) as applied to the workers compensation system is a series of standardised tests used to assess a worker's functional capacities for work.

These guidelines were developed by WorkCover's Functional Capacity Evaluation Working Party:

• Guidelines for functional capacity evaluations (effective 17 February 2006) [67KB]
• Occupational therapy - Functional Capacity Evalulation (FCE) executive summary (for workers compensation claimants) [72KB]

This guideline should be read in conjunction with the existing information on FCEs located in the Occupational therapy fee schedule and guidelines and the Physiotherapy fee schedule and guidelines.
