Add Jobs
A job is a general set of qualifications, duties and responsibilities as specified in a job description. Each job has a unique job code and may be linked to a cadre, job classification and salary grade.
There may be multiple instances of the same job within an organization. Each of these instances is filled by one employee and is referred to as a position. Before a position can be created in the system, its generic job must be added. After creating a generic job, it can be reused as needed for multiple positions that perform the same general duties. For example, a Clinical Nurse, Pediatric Nurse and Intensive Care Nurse may all be positions with the same generic job of Nurse. Only the HR Manager or System Administrator can add or edit jobs.
1. From the home page or left menu, click Administer Positions.
2. In the "Create Job Structure" section, click Add Jobs.
3. Either select Add New Job or select an existing job to edit.
4. Enter a Title for the job.
5. Enter a Code for the job (optional).
6. Enter a Description for the job (optional).
7. Select the Salary Grade for the job (optional).
8. Select the Cadre for the job (optional).
9. Select the Classification for the job (optional).
10. Click Confirm and confirm that the job entered is correct. If it is not correct, click Edit to change it. If it is, click Save to save it.
