Sammendrag
“Jobs” have been the basic building blocks in most work organizations. In order to rationalize, coordinate and control work, job design has been an important tool for employers. A clearly defined and a well described job has also been a guide to employees and employers about the content of the employment relationship and a basis for various personnel related decisions. Most human resource systems are based on the idea that work is organized into jobs [Schippmann, 1999 #4; Sparrow, 1998 #45]. The job analysis has been a very important tool because it provides the information base for a wide variety of organizational and managerial functions. The job description typically underpins decisions concerning central human resource decisions about selection, promotions and careers, performance appraisal, and training.
