Document Summary

The main focus in this chapter is: how to determine what to value in a job, how to quantify what we value, how to translate that value into job structure. Job structure: is the hierarchy of all jobs based on value to the organization; provides the basis for the pay structure. Job evaluation: is the process of systematically determining the relative worth of jobs to create a job structure for the organization. Job analysis -> job description -> job evaluation -> job structure. Some major decisions in job evaluation: establish purpose of evaluation, decide whether to use single or multiple plans, choose among alternative approaches, obtain involvement of relevant stakeholders, evaluate pla(cid:374)"s useful(cid:374)ess. Job content and job value: a structure based on job content refers to the skills required for the job, its duties and responsibilities. A structure based on job value refers to the relative contribution of the jo(cid:271) to the o(cid:396)ga(cid:374)izatio(cid:374)"s goals.
