COVID-19 continues to change the world as we once knew it. It will likely be months before we experience some semblance of normalcy. In my last blog post, I talked about the importance of ensuring that your job descriptions accurately reflect the current state of each job. Unfortunately, job descriptions are often created and then forgotten even though the jobs they represent are constantly changing. I tell my clients that job descriptions should be living and breathing documents that are reviewed and updated frequently. Job descriptions not only help us guide our employees on the expectations of the job and provide us with a yardstick to measure performance, but they also help us assess another very important part of HR – Compensation. In uncertain times like these, how we calculate employee compensation is bound to change. And job descriptions, specifically the essential functions and qualifications sections, offer us the most insight into how to determine the appropriate pay level for employees.
