The Role:

As a WCA Functional Assessor, you’ll use your clinical experience to assess how a person's health conditions or disabilities affect their ability to carry out everyday activities and work-related tasks.

You’ll conduct structured assessments by telephone, video and face-to-face, review relevant medical information, apply your clinical reasoning and produce clear, evidence-based reports.

Carrying out clinical or functional assessments
