    Job descriptions are very important in organizations.

    #1. Job descriptions can keep you compliant with certain government regulations and prove in certain cases the requirements of the job.

    #2. The job description gives the employee a guide to go by to complete the job to which he has been assigend. It also gives him an overview of what is required.

    #3. The job description is used when figuring compensation for the employee. These are matched against the DOL descriptions to find what pay class this employee fits and what pay scale is correct.

    #4. The job description is used when doing an annual review to highlight weak or strong points of job performace during the review.

    #5. The job description is used for training to assess what training is needed. This is especially true if new jobs are added and revisions are made to the existing job description.

    Job descriptions should be looked at annually and updated to reflect the currect performace of the employee.
