Job description

A job description (including job description or English. Job description) is a person- neutral written description of a job in terms of their work objectives, tasks, competences and relations to other places. The distinction from a so-called occupation picture is the level of demonstration. An international vacancy is mentioned in the recruitment area and Assignment letter.

Procedure

The contents of job descriptions vary in literature and practice and between businesses. The wording should be clear, simple and unambiguous manner and may include the following particulars:

  • Classification of the point in the company's organization
  • Representation
  • Job description Objectives (main task ) of the agency
  • Tasks ( leadership, specialized tasks, specific tasks and personal tasks)
  • Responsibilities and duties
  • Demands on the jobholder
  • Cooperation with other bodies

On the design of a job description concerned should be involved. The development is usually completed with the signatures of the creator, the job holder and his immediate superior. Job descriptions should endure only so long as they reflect the reality, as they describe the instantaneous state.

Professional job descriptions contain information about performance expectations that provide the supervisor and those holders an objective basis for assessing performance. These are used for the formulation of requirement profiles.

Part of the employment contract is the legally prescribed job description. Your content is largely identical to those of the job description in the description of the activities, so the latter is often defined based on the employment contract.
