Job

- A
job description describes the
major areas of an employee's
job or position. A good job
description begins with a careful
analysis of the important facts
about a job, such as the individual
tasks involved, the methods
used to complete the tasks,
the purpose and responsibilities
of the job, the relationship
of the job to other jobs, and
the qualifications needed for
the job. A job description will
serve as a major basis for set
employee goals, job-training
program, conducting job evaluations
and hiring the right candidates.
- Remember that any jobs are subject
to change due either to organizational
development or the evolution
of new technologies. Flexible
job descriptions will help you
to make change at time and encourage
your employees to grow within
their positions and learn how
to make larger contributions
to your company. Remember, when
an employee's job duties change,
the revised job description
should be updated. Effectively
developed, job descriptions
are communication tools that
are significant in your organization's
success. Poorly written job
descriptions add to workplace
confusion and can hurt communication.
- To help you write effective
job descriptions spend some
time thinking about the job.
Make notes or keep a diary of
work related activities. Talk
with managers and employees
directly and ask them about
their tasks, responsibilities,
and percentage of time devoted
to the duties. If you have a
good understanding of the job
and the requirements for positions
you will be able to write a
good job description.
- Remember a job description is
viewed as a legal document so
anything that is seen to be
discriminatory on the basis
of sex, national origin, race,
colour, age, nationality or
physical or mental disability
is illegal.
- Job descriptions should be written
in brief and clear sentences.
The basic structure for sentences
in a job description should
be implied subject/verb/object/explanatory
phrase.
