About This Course:
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Through the year 2030, employment is expected to increase by 11.9 million jobs.
At the same time, the labor force is projected to grow over the next 10 years at an average annual rate of .5 percent. While there is not specific law requiring employers to create job descriptions or even what they should contain, a well written job description helps employers and employees to understand how together, they can contribute to the organization's success.
Like a well written employee handbook, job descriptions provide clear guidelines for recruiters and candidates to understand the skills, traits and abilities required to perform in the role and meet those expectations.
Finally, the absence of well written job description provides little defense against claims of discrimination in the hiring and promotion process.
