Mind Really Matters: Cognitive Demands Assessments

Humans aren't robots, which means that the performance of their work tasks can vary depending on their physical and mental state. As such, understanding the cognitive load that a worker handles to do their job is important to understand how their mental state will affect their job performance.

A Cognitive Demands Assessment can help bridge this gap: if a worker is requesting an accommodation, due to cognitive limitations that will impact their job, their work may be able to be modified to help them manage tasks that may be beyond them as they recover.

This month, join us for a primer on a new tool that is ever-increasing in popularity: the Cognitive Demands Assessment.
