Position Description
Job Evaluation Process
It is important that the position descriptions are reviewed periodically to ensure that they are kept up to date and relevant. If changes need to be made, the changes can be made through a position description modification or audit. Submissions are reviewed by an HR compensation review committee. Position description audits and modifications follow a similar process. To determine which is appropriate for a particular position description, use the following guidelines:
-
Audit
Includes major changes to the description (usually 15-20% or more). Required qualifications may be updated. Involves a grade evaluation and requires VP approval.
-
Modification
Includes minor changes to the description. These changes don’t usually affect the grade or FLSA exemption status of the position. Because these changes are minor, they do not require VP approval.
