Job Descriptions

Hi All

Interested to hear what you all include on job descriptions as I am just embarking on an update of all job descriptions.

We currently include

Job Title

Reports to

Mission Statement 

Main Duties and Responsibilities

Additional Duties

General Standards

Manager Standards 

Signature of both Employee and Manager.

Our parent company have just suggested we also have person spec and skills/qualifications on them so these can be looked at during an appraisal to ensure the correct skill set. I can understand the skills/qualifications but not the person spec as surely this is outlined at interview?

What are your thoughts?

Thanks

Rachel

  • Hi Rachel

    Yes interesting I am more familiar with using the Person Spec at the selection stage, and I think they tend to be more widely used in the Public Sector (all that is just my take on things).  Below I have included titles from the role profiles where I used to work which as you can see does incude a section for knowledge and skills and it would be the job description which we would use in any performance management discussions.  I hope this helps.

    Regards
