Job Analysis
Job analysis is a systematic investigation of the tasks, duties and responsibilities necessary to do a job.
Job analysis is the process of collecting job related information.
Job analysis aims to answer questions such as:
• Why does the job exist?• What physical and mental activities does the worker undertake?• When is the job to be performed?• Where is the job to be performed?• How does the worker do the job?• What qualifications are needed to perform the job?• What are the working conditions (such as levels of temperature,
noise, offensive fumes, light)• What machinery or equipment is used in the job?• What constitutes successful performance?

Process of Job Analysis
• Organisational Analysis• Selection of representative positions to be analysed• Collection of job analysis data• Preparation of job description• Preparation of job specifications
Basic Methods to Collect Job Analysis Information
Interviews (Individual or group)
Format: Individual or group with SME (Subject Matter Experts)SMEs: Employees and/or supervisors
Key Points:• Make purpose of the job analysis clear• Interviewers need to be trained• Use a structured format
Potential Limitations:Employees may distort the responsibilities of their jobSupervisors may lack detailed information as to how the
job is done
Classification of job analysis interview
* Individual interviews with each employee.
* Group interviews with groups of employees having the same job
* Interview supervisor who are knowledgeable about the job being analyzed.
Types of job analysis interview
There are two types of interview: * unstructured interview * structured interview
Dimensions measured by the PAQ:a) Where and how employees get job/task information b) Cognitive process involved (e.g., planning, organization, making
decisions)c) Output (e.g., activities performed, tools/processes used)d) Interpersonal relationships required (e.g., co-workers, clients)e) Context of job (physical and social)Advantages:• PAQ can allow comparisons and generalizations across jobs
• Decent internal consistency reliability (.80)
• Inter-rater reliability of .66
Limitations:• Cannot clarify questions or follow up on respondents answers
• Best used for manual labor jobs (lots of items related to equipment use)
• Relatively high reading level (10th - 12th grade)
• Task differences may not be measured due to behavioral similarities
Questionnaires (e.g., Position Analysis Questionnaire; PAQ)
. Definition of task inventory method
• A task inventory is a list of the discrete activities that make up a specific job in a specific organization.
• A task inventory is method to identifying—with the help of employees and managers—a list of tasks and their descriptions that are components of different jobs.
Task inventory process:
• Incumbents can respond to tasks listed by interview.• Rate the frequency, time spent of each task by analyst, supervisors, incumbents…• These tasks then allow inferences about KSAs needed to perform the job• The rating scales allow inferences about weighting KSAs & tasks in selection
Four key criteria for a good task inventory
• Immediate: Task unit intermediate in specificity; between job function and procedure.• Discrete: Each task distinguishable; definite beginning and ending.• Active: Action verb and object of each action.• Comprehensive: all work activities concerned/..
Définition of Position Analysis Questionnaire (PAQ model)
• PAQ model developed by McCormick, Jeanneret, and Mecham (1972), is a structured instrument of job analysis to measure job characteristics and relate them to human characteristics.
• It consists of 195 job elements that describe generic human work behaviors.
Contents of PAQ method / technique:
• 187 items of job elements includes six categories: i) information output ii) mental processes iii) work output iv) relationships with other people v) job context vi) other job characteristics
Advantages of PAQ method / technique:
• PAQ method / technique: is structured to allow for easy quantification.
• The format of this method include in both data collection and computer analysis and can yield results much faster than the other methods.
• It has been shown to be extremely reliable, results usually replicate on a second administration.
• The taxonomic approach of the PAQ makes comparison of jobs relatively easy.
Disadvantages of PAQ method / technique
• One of the major disadvantages of PAQ, however, is related to its taxonomic approach.
• Getting Human Resources probably because its language is not specific to particular jobs.
• Another criticism of the language used in PAQ is that its reading level is too difficult.
Process of PAQ method / technique:
• Job incumbents (and sometimes their managers) answer questions on form outlining skills, abilities and knowledge needed to perform the job.
• Responses are compiled and a composite job requirement statement is produced.
SUBJECT EXPERT WORKSHOP It is a necessary process which defines the knowledge, skills and
abilities necessary to operate a successful business. Job analysisimpacts the recruiting and selection process, policy development
training and development initiatives, promotions and lateral moves.In this:• the importance of job analysis,• the different methods and appropriate uses of each,• the linkage between job analysis and other areas of the organization,• legal considerations,• managing both the process and politics,
Definition of critical incident technique (CIT model)
• CIT model is method used for collecting observations of human behavior that are judged to be “effective” or “ineffective” in work, activities.
• “Simply, critical incident involves the collection of observations of employee behaviors that are both effective and ineffective”
History of CIT method / technique:
• This method was developed by Flanagan during World War II (Director of the Division of Aviation Psychology, United States Army Air Forces).
• He described critical incident technique as a set of procedures used to collect observations of human behavior. These observations are used to solve practical problems and develop psychological
Purpose of CIT method / technique:
Built job descriptions, job specification and job standard.• Create a list of good and bad behaviors which can then be used for performance appraisal.• Testing the effectiveness of the job description and job specification.
Sources for critical incidents include:
Workers• co-workers• supervisors,• managers,• Customer• External and internal suppliers• And others.
Definition of Fleishman Job Analysis Survey (FJAS model):
The Fleishman Job Analysis Survey® (F-JAS) is a system for describing jobs and tasks in terms of the abilities, skills, knowledge, and social-interpersonal attributes required
The F-JAS method provides a direct link between job tasks and the characteristics of individuals required to perform these tasks effectively.
Process of FJAS method: The FJAS consists of a total of 73 knowledge and skill scales for a variety of abilities from the cognitive, the psychomotor and the sensory domain as well as interactive and social domains. The method assumes that jobs / tasks can be differentiated by their skills / abilities that are required to perform them and that people, who know the job well (i.e. job incumbents, supervisors) can make reliable and valid assessments of the required skills / abilities.
Cognitive
• Perceptual Abilities* Spatial Abilities* Idea Generation & Reasoning Abilities* Quantitative Abilities* Memory* Attentiveness* Verbal Abilities
Psycho-motor
*Control Movement Abilities* Reaction Time and Speed Abilities* Fine Manipulative Abilities
Physical
• * Endurance* Flexibility, Balance, and Coordination* Visual Abilities* Auditory and Speech Abilities* Physical Strength Abilities
Sensory
The second step involve a meeting of experts, each of whom provides his/her. The analyst calculates and obtains job description.
Definition of functional job analysis (FJA model)
• FJA model is a method of job analysis that was developed by the Employment and Training Administration of the United States Department of Labor.
Who use FJA method / technique ?
• This method were developed by groups of four to six Subject Matter Experts (“SMEs” are typically supervisors, job incumbents, or job analysts).
Procedure• The first involves the identification of the organization’s goals for the FJA
analysis . This analysis describes what should be, as well as what is:• The second step is the identification and descriptions of tasks , wherein tasks
are defined as actions . The tasks, actions may be physical (operating a computer), mental, (analyzing data) or interpersonal (consulting another person) . The task statements developed in FJA must conform to a specific written format.
• The third step deals with analysis of tasks. Each task is analyzed using 7 scales. These include three worker function scales of reasoning, mathematics and language.
• In the fourth step, the analysts develops performance standards to assess the results of a worker’s task.
• The final step deals with the development of training content needed
Contents of FJA method / technique:
• 1 worker-instruction scale.• 3 scales that measure reasoning, mathematics, language.• 3 worker-function scales: measure % of time spent with: data, people, things
• Each scale has several levels that are anchored with specific behavioral statements and illustrative tasks.
job element method of job analysis
This method, like the critical incident technique, focuses on satisfactory workers. It attempts to identify the characteristics of satisfactory workers (job elements).
JEM method focuses on work behaviors and the
results of this behavior rather than more abstract characteristics.
The steps to perform a Job Element method
• Step 1: Select a group of experts• Step 2: Conduct brainstorming sessions to identify job
elements• Step 3: Assign weights to each of the elements based on the
following criteria • Step 4: Derived scales is process of delivering scale values
from the expert ratings• Step 5: Assigning elements to categories• Step 6: Use results in your application
Repertory grid
• Identify a range of 10-20 people who do the job (these are called elements).
• Select three at random.• Select two that seem more similar in some way.• Identify what it is about them that is similar (this
is the similarity pole).• Identify what is different about the other person
(this is the contrast pole).
