Hire Better Employees and Reduce Your Risk

Job descriptions are written statements that outline an employee’s duties, responsibilities, required qualifications, FLSA status and reporting hierarchy for a particular position. They are developed based upon job analysis and understanding of the skills required to accomplish the tasks of the each particular position.

Properly Developed Job Descriptions Can:

1. Increase the quality of your new hires
2. Reduce the company’s risk
3. Justify overtime exemptions

How Job Descriptions are Used in the Hiring Process

Selecting the Best Candidates

Job descriptions can be used by your managers in the hiring process to select the best possible new hires. The job descriptions should outline the job’s duties and competencies:

• The Job Duties assist the hiring manager in the interview process to ensure the applicant has the experience necessary to adequately perform the duties.
• The Competencies outline the attributes that are needed to perform the position. Examples of competencies are promptness, detail oriented, etc. During the interview process, the hiring manager can assess if the employee has the needed competencies to properly perform the position.

Reducing Risk

The job descriptions can also reduce the company’s risk should an employee not perform the position satisfactorily. Should an employee not live up to the duties outlined in the position, the job description provides the company support for disciplining or terminating the employee.
