Earnings Capacity Assessments
An earning capacity assessment is an evaluation of an individual’s ability to earn wages before and after an injury. The main point here is the ability, which is hard to measure without a strict methodology employed by a vocational expert. Earning capacity assessments provide an accurate evaluation regarding the lost wages and diminished future earning capacity that occurred due to the injury. Generally, working history alone is not presumptive of the earning capacity prior to the event, which is why it’s necessary to evaluate other factors that establish a more precise assessment of the baseline earning capacity.
