Writing Job Descriptions

A few tips on writing Job Descriptions.

 

  • A Quick Start....For each position, on paper, simply explain the position as if you are responding to a potential applicant.

  • Get help from an expert.  Ask a few employees currently doing the job to produce a bullet pointed description of their job duties.

  • Keep Job Descriptions brief and simple!  Do not go into exhaustive detail; a place for everything and everything in its place; leave the "How to" for your training material, and put job standards in your Performance Standards document.

  • Beyond a brief description of job duties, you SHOULD include: Hiring pre-requisites such as certifications, experience etc., Pay Ranges, Shift Information, Department, Hiring Supervisor Name, and Physical Requirements such as the ability to lift X lbs, bend, twist etc.

  • A great resource for Job Descriptions is the Dictionary of Occupational Titles DOT.  Click Here to Get Started:  http://online.onetcenter.org/
