Multiple Use Job Descriptions: A Guide to Analysis, Preparation, and Applications for Human Resources Managers by Philip C. Grant (Hardcover, 1989)

A reference book for human resources professionals and students, identifying an extensive array of uses for job descriptions: 132 major management uses are discussed. Particular attention is given to gathering data for job descriptions and developing task/responsibility categories as an aid to understanding the design of work. Sample job descriptions are included to illustrate points made in the text. The author demonstrates the numerous ways in which job descriptions can help management make better decisions in each of the core areas of human resource management: job design, reward system design, employee staffing, employee training and performance control. In addition, the text addresses the many typical problems organizations have with job description preparation and use, offering a wealth of suggestions for avoiding these common pitfalls. Finally, the book shows that the design of jobs can be accurately depicted by job descriptions if attention is given to key unconventional types of information such as task times and priorities, non-work and semi-work activity, and unplanned work. The text features an apendix section which contains model forms and questionaires, log sheets, lists of objectives, rules, regulations, policies, and more.
