What Makes OAS Unique

The evaluations conducted by the experts at Occupational Assessment Services are unique. Not only do we review all medical records and other pertinent documents and conduct a standardized diagnostic vocational interview, but we actually test the injured worker using the most "state of the art" techniques, including computerized measurement of aptitudes and skills. We are one of the few vocational rehabilitation companies experienced in testing the aptitudes and abilities of Spanish and other non-English speaking individuals.

As part of the vocational evaluation, we include an assessment of the injured person’s ability to perform household activities. Occupational Assessment Services’ experts use a combination of a functional capacity assessment and a time-use diary method to objectively measure a disabled person’s ability to perform household activities such as child care, meal preparation, shopping, cleaning, and financial tasks. This evaluation is included at no additional cost in the Vocational Evaluation Report.

We also provide an estimate of the loss of earning capacity, which includes an assessment of average fringe benefits, at the conclusion of each Vocational and Earning Capacity Report.
