### Functional Job Analysis

WorkWell's Functional Job Analysis and Functional Job Descriptions combine to create a foundation for employers to make informed and legally-compliant hiring decisions, move existing employees into new jobs, and return injured employees safely back to work.

The Process Includes:

- Interviewing employees who perform the job
- Interviewing supervisors/employer representatives who supervise workers and understand the job.
- Watching the job being performed.
- Taking all appropriate measurements

### Functional Job Descriptions

The analysis results in the development of a Functional Job Description (FJD). The information in the Functional Job Description is intended to determine the minimum physical requirements necessary to perform work duties safely.

"WorkWell designed an entire program to meet our needs. They proactively addressed any necessary changes to our FJDs as our job tasks evolved."
