Job Site Analysis
The
Job Site Analysis
is a very important
component to case
resolution and
deciding if a
worker's job is
suitable or not. The
collective goal of
any work related
injury is to allow
the worker to return
to work in a timely
manner performing
the same, similar,
or some tasks which
allows them to have
a job. The Job Site
Analysis can
be ordered by a;
physician, a case
manager, an employer
or an attorney’s
office. It is
scheduled on a day
that is convenient
for the patient,
employer and
industrial
rehabilitative team
member to meet at
the place of
employment. The
employee is asked to
be at the Job Site
Analysis in
order to get the
full subjective
report and account
of what activities
they feel would
affect returning to
work.
The goal of the Job Site Analysis is to evaluate all material and non-material handling aspects of the position which will be performed or is being offered as a place of employment for the injured worker. This is accomplished by taking digital pictures, video, measuring and weighing objects along with other tasks which allow for clear understanding of what is involved to perform the job. Most importantly the Job Site Analysis evaluates the workers current abilities with what is required of the position, making a recommendation of whether or not the job can / cannot be performed safely. This detailed report allows for all members of the treating medical team and people associated with the workers care to collectively understand what will be expected of the worker in this position(s).
The date and time of the Job Site Analysis is scheduled through an Industrial Rehabilitation team member and can be performed on various shifts and weekends if need be. The Job Site Analysis can last anywhere from thirty minutes up to two hours depending on the severity of the injury and complexity of the case.
