Having done this, here is what I did:
(1) I decided which positions needed job descriptions and which weren't necessary (for example, we don't really have a job description for the CEO) (2) I searched online and found many examples for each position and pulled together a standard format that worked for our company. It was what I felt was the best of other ones. At times I had to combine positions due to the fact that in some positions, our structure of duties is different than other companies. (3) I asked each supervisor to help define positions below them and then asked those employees to read over what we had created. This was still at the draft/editing stage. (4) Passed the job descriptions by legal counsel. (5) Gave each employee a copy of the finalized job description and pass them out to new hires. |
