Beeline coordinates job-informed fitness-for-duty evaluations through qualified clinicians, with the essential functions and referral question defined before the visit.
Service overview
Give the clinician a clear, work-related question.
A fitness-for-duty evaluation should focus on whether an employee can perform identified essential job functions safely, with or without restrictions, based on the information available to the evaluating clinician. Beeline coordinates the referral, records and follow-up without replacing employer legal or human-resources review.
