Social Security vocational experts (VEs) are independent contractors hired by the Social Security Administration (SSA) to provide expert testimony at disability hearings. Social Security Vocational Experts are experts in the field of vocational rehabilitation and have a deep understanding of the labor market, job demands, and the transferability of skills. VEs are typically called to testify at hearings when the SSA needs help determining whether a claimant can still perform their past work or any other work that exists in the national economy. To make this determination, VEs consider the claimant's age, education, work experience, residual functional capacity (RFC), and other relevant factors. For more info visit:- www.greenwoodvc.com
