Let $T$ be a contraction on a complex, separable, infinite dimensional Hilbert space and let $\sigma (T)\,(\text{resp}\text{.}\,{{\sigma }_{e}}(T))$ be its spectrum (resp. essential spectrum). We assume that $T$ is an essentially isometric operator; that is, ${{I}_{H}}\,-\,T*T$ is compact. We show that if $D\backslash \sigma (T)\,\ne \,\varnothing $, then for every $f$ from the disc-algebra

$${{\sigma }_{e}}\left( f\left( T \right) \right)\,=\,f\left( {{\sigma }_{e}}\left( T \right) \right),$$

where $D$ is the open unit disc. In addition, if $T$ lies in the class ${{C}_{0}}.\,\bigcup \,C{{.}_{0}}$, then

$${{\sigma }_{e}}\left( f\left( T \right) \right)\,=\,f\left( \sigma \left( T \right)\,\bigcap \,\Gamma \right),$$

where $\Gamma $ is the unit circle. Some related problems are also discussed.
