Overview
The Jobchart System® of Job Evaluation
The Jobchart System® has numerous advantages over other systems:
- A simplified questionnaire allows valid employee participation regardless of the level or kind of job
- Interviews with job holders supplement questionnaire completion
and provide solid documentation - Brief Task Lists summarize the jobs in an easily maintainable form, and can be built on to meet recruitment, training, and performance management needs
- Scoring is rapid, accurate and well documented
- Results are presented in a format that can be audited by senior management
- The data collection methodology, straightforward approach and believable results lead to high credibility on the part of both management and employees
- Checks in the system encourage accurate evaluation and discourage the gradual upward creep of job scores
- The methodology is able to reveal flaws in the organization, such as excessive or insufficient levels of supervision, inadequate job structures, and gaps in promotion paths
- The Jobchart System® can be applied to all jobs in any organization, from top to bottom and across all job families
- The Jobchart System® links well to salary survey, salary structure and performance pay systems
- The Jobchart System®, once installed with adequate staff training, can be maintained without continued consulting support
