Lesson 1: Define Jobs
Objectives
After completing this lesson, you should be able to:
Use of jobs or jobs and positions varies by industry and customer requirements.
Enterprise Structures Configurator (ESC) helps you with the decision during the
implementation.
Jobs are typically used without positions by service industries where flexibility and
organizational change are key features.
Typically use jobs: If a worker leaves, in most cases the headcount is used for other
be any job, probably even different department and salary purposes (could).
Typically use positions: If a worker leaves, in most cases a successor is hired into the
same job and department, may be even the same grade.
Vacancies can easily be tracked and reported on – If you only use jobs,
vacancies are not ‘visible’.
Incumbent history at the position makes it easy to track who was in this position
at any time (even if the position is currently vacant).
Jobs Overview
Jobs are typically used without positions by service industries where flexibility and
organizational change are key features.
The following screenshot is the Create Job page within the Manage Job task. You can
see the five train stops that guide you through the job creation.
Manage Jobs
Manage Job Families
EVAL_SYSTEM: Identifies the evaluation system used for the job or position
EVAL_SYSTEM_MEAS: Measurement unit for the evaluation criteria
JOB_FUNCTION_CODE: Description of the primary function of a job (used for
grouping and reporting jobs of like functions)
MANAGER_LEVEL: Description of the seniority of a manager
Basic Details
You define the following basic information for jobs:
A job code must be unique within a set. Therefore, you can create a job with the code
DEV01 in the US set and another job with the same code in the UK set. However, if you
create a job with the code DEV01 in the Common set, then you cannot create a job with
the same code in any other set.
A progression job is the next job in a career ladder. Progression jobs enable you to
create a hierarchy of jobs and are used to provide the list of values for the Job field in
the Promote Worker and Transfer Worker tasks. The list of values includes the next
three jobs in the progression job hierarchy.
For example, assume that you create a job called Junior Developer and select
Developer as the progression job. In the Developer job, you select Senior Developer as
the progression job. When you promote a junior developer, the list of values for the new
job will include Developer and Senior Developer.
Grades
You can specify the grades that are valid for a job. If you are using positions, then the
grades that you specify for the job become the default grades for the position.
If users select both a job and a position for the assignment or employment terms,
then they can select grades that are valid for the position only.
If valid grades are defined for neither the job nor the position, then users can
select from all grades
If you set this profile option to No, which is the default value, then users can select from
all grades.
If you set this profile option to No, which is the default value, then users can select from
all grades.
Evaluation Criteria
You can define evaluation criteria for a job, including the evaluation system, a date, and
the unit of measure for the system. One predefined evaluation system is available, and
that is the Hay system.
An additional value of Custom is included in the list of values for the Evaluation System
field, but you must add your own criteria and values for this system.
Job Families
A job family is a group of jobs that have different but related functions, qualifications,
and titles. They are beneficial for reporting. Examples include:
Administration
Finance and Accounting
Support
Logistics
You set up the job families and then enter a job family when defining a job.
This association enables you to define the work requirements and the required
competencies, degrees, and other skills for the job or position. This association also
enables you to compare profiles and use the best-fit analysis for tasks such as finding
the worker best-suited for a job or for helping workers identify their next career moves.
The following figure compares the information that is contained in a job profile with that
contained in a job:
