# WebWorker.evaluateHandle() method
Evaluates a given function in the [worker](./puppeteer.webworker.md).
#### Signature:
```typescript
class WebWorker {
evaluateHandle<
Params extends unknown[],
Func extends EvaluateFunc<Params> = EvaluateFunc<Params>,
>(
func: Func | string,
...args: Params
): Promise<HandleFor<Awaited<ReturnType<Func>>>>;
}
```
## Parameters

<tbody><tr><td>
func
</td><td>
Func \| string
</td><td>
Function to be evaluated.
</td></tr>
<tr><td>
args
</td><td>
Params
</td><td>
Arguments to pass into `func`.
</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
**Returns:**
Promise&lt;[HandleFor](./puppeteer.handlefor.md)&lt;Awaited&lt;ReturnType&lt;Func&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
A [handle](./puppeteer.jshandle.md) to the return value of `func`.
## Remarks
If the given function returns a promise, [evaluate](./puppeteer.webworker.evaluate.md) will wait for the promise to resolve.
In general, you should use [evaluateHandle](./puppeteer.webworker.evaluatehandle.md) if [evaluate](./puppeteer.webworker.evaluate.md) cannot serialize the return value properly or you need a mutable [handle](./puppeteer.jshandle.md) to the return object.
