Job evaluation is a practical technique, designed to enable trained and experienced staff to judge the size of one job relative to others. The job evaluation process results in a job being assigned to a pay grade. The pay grade is associated with a pay range that is defined by a minimum and a maximum pay rate.
Job evaluation assesses both the content of a job and the value of a job. Job content refers to the type of work performed and the skills and knowledge necessary to perform the work. Job value refers to the job's degree of contribution in meeting your organization's goals and the degree of difficulty in filling the job.
Job evaluation can help remove anomalies or inequalities in the payment system. It helps in providing a more structured basis for providing grading levels.
Job evaluations can be used to
• Clarify job descriptions so that employees understand the expectations of their roles and the relationship of their roles to other jobs within the organization.
• Attract desirable job candidates.
• Retain high-potential employees.
Job evaluators assess jobs based on factors such as Training level or qualifications requirements, Knowledge and skills requirements, Complexity of tasks, Interaction with various levels of the organization, Problem-solving and independent judgment, Accountability and responsibility, Decision-making authority, Degree of supervision required, Cross-training requirements, Working conditions, Degree of difficulty in filling job.
It should be noted that evaluation is concerned with the job and not with the person performing it. Also the judgment on the job size must not be influenced by the job titles or by the present status and the pay. Since evaluation is concerned with organizational reality care should be taken to evaluate jobs at fully acceptable standard of performance, they should not reflect good or bad performance of the current job holders but what is required by the job to achieve organizational effectiveness.
