Job Description
• A job description is a written statement of the duties, responsibilities, required qualifications and reporting relationships of a particular job.
• The job description is based on objective information obtained through job analysis.
• Job description acts as an important resource for– Describing the job to potential candidates– Guiding new hired employees in what they are specifically
expected to do– Providing a point of comparison in appraising whether the
actual duties align with the stated duties.

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: ______________________________________________________________________________________________________
JOB CHARACTERISTICS: ______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Job specification
• Job specifications specify the minimum acceptable qualifications required by the individual to perform the task efficiently. Based on the information obtained from the job analysis procedures, job specification identifies the qualifications, appropriate skills, knowledge, and abilities and experienced required to perform the job.
• Job specification is an important tool in the selection process as it keeps the attention of the selector on the necessary qualifications required for that job.
Example of Job SpecificationJOB TITLE: __________________________EDUCATION:_________________________PHYSICAL HEALTH:

APPEARANCE: ____________________________________________________________
MENTAL ABILITIES: _______________________________________________SPECIAL ABILITIES: _______________________________________________PREVIOUS WORK EXPERIENCE:

Job Evaluation
• Job evaluation provides the relative value of each job in the organization. It is an important tool to determine compensation administration.
• If an organization is to have an equitable compensation program, jobs that have similar demands on terms of skills, education and other characteristics should be placed in the common compensation groups.
Methods of Collecting Job Analysis Data
• Observation• Performing the job.• Critical incidents• Interview- individual & group• Panel of experts• Diary method• Questionnaire – Structured– Unstructured
Methods of collection Job description data
• Diary/log books• Observation• Interview• Questionnaire:– Structured – Unstructured
Which method to use ?
• Factors to be considered before choosing the method of collecting data are:
– No. of job/employees to be considered. – Time limit– Cost factors– Education levels of incumbents– Type of data required.
Questionnaires
• Unstructured format is more useful when:
– Questions are open ended.– Questions that probing– The number of incumbents is less– Roles are unclear
• Structured more useful when:
– The jobs are fixed and duties extremely clear.– Number of incumbents is large.
Which questionnaire to use ?
An optimum combination of structured as well as unstructured
questions can lead to the best questionnaire. A questionnaire is the
best alternative to interviewing a large number of employees. It is much
more cost effective.
