Document Summary
Job analysis: the systematic process of collecting information about the nature of specific jobs. Involves the identification and description of what is happening on the job: required tasks, required knowledge and skills, working conditions, it establishes similarities and differences in the content of jobs. Knowing the knowledge, skills and abilities helps managers know how much you should be paid. This information helps determine how much your pay should be. Job family: grouping of related jobs with broadly similar content. Job: group of tasks performed by one person that make up the total work assignment of that person. Task: smallest unit of analysis, a specific statement of what a person does. Job based pay structures: look at the tasks the people are doing and the expected outcomes. Job analysis is the first step in the process of creating an internal pay structure. Job evaluation is the process of comparing jobs within an organization.
