A vocational assessment can provide a detailed, expert opinion that explains why your disability prevents you from working.

A vocational expert can achieve this by:  (1) providing an accurate and comprehensive description of your job responsibilities; (2) highlighting the skills and abilities necessary to perform your job successfully; (3) clearly explaining your inability to meet particular work demands; and (4) providing an expert conclusion as to whether you can perform your own occupation or any other occupation.

Functional limitations from your disability can affect your ability to do your job and may support a disability claim. Your condition may cause limitations or restrictions that affect your job and prevent you from performing the requirements of your occupation or other occupations.  You may suffer from exertional limitations, non-exertional limitations, or a combination thereof.
