Labor capacity assessment refers to the grading of the degree of labor function impairment and the degree of self-care disability. Labor function impairment is divided into ten disability grades, with grade 1 being the most severe and grade 10 the least severe. Disabilities in self-care are divided into three levels: complete inability to take care of oneself, significant inability to take care of oneself, and partial inability to take care of oneself. If an employee suffers a work-related injury and, after treatment, remains disabled with impaired working capacity, a work capacity assessment should be conducted. The applicants for labor capacity assessment are: 1. the employer; 2. the injured worker himself/herself or his/her immediate relatives; 3. trade union organizations.

I. A re-evaluation of work capacity is conducted one year after the issuance of the initial work capacity assessment conclusion. If the injured worker or his/her immediate relatives, as well as the employer or the agency handling the case, believe that there has been a change in the degree of disability, they may submit an application for a re-evaluation to the Work Capacity Assessment Committee. The committee then conducts an assessment in accordance with relevant standards and issues a new work capacity assessment conclusion. For employees who need to have their work capacity assessed due to work-related or health reasons, the employer shall organize such assessments within the specified time frame, submit an application in writing to the Labor Capacity Assessment Committee, and fill out the \"Labor Capacity Assessment Application Form\". If the enterprise does not submit an application, the employees and their relatives may apply, and the labor assessment committee shall not refuse. II.
