Job descriptions tend to sit untouched on a shared drive until someone urgently needs one for a new hire, a workplace injury or a lawsuit. When they are outdated or don't match the real job, they help no one.
This 60-minute job descriptions training for HR gives practical guidance on writing legally compliant job descriptions that clearly set out duties and expectations. You'll cover the legal considerations every employer should know, including the Americans with Disabilities Act, workers' compensation and wage and hour rules, plus a roadmap and best practices for development and the key components of a strong description.
The session also explains how job analysis, job descriptions and job postings differ, and how to use job descriptions in recruiting, hiring, onboarding, performance management, promotions, compensation and leave management.
Accurate job descriptions support fair job evaluations in recruitment, promotion, discipline and leave decisions, and strengthen your position if a claim is filed. This course gives you practical structures for creating descriptions that fit your company's needs.
It suits HR directors, managers, analysts and business partners, recruitment, talent acquisition and onboarding specialists, engagement coordinators, training and development managers and policy development officers.
