How can I change my job title and description to reflect my changed responsibilities at work? Does it matter in the long run?
This depends on your employer’s policies. There should be a procedure for agreeing job descriptions, which should involve the job holder producing a draft to be discussed and agreed with the relevant line manager. Thereshould also be a job evaluation procedure, under which employees can apply for a review if they think their job has changed, or that their roles and responsibilities do not reflect their job title or description. Whether it matters really depends on whether the job description and the roles defined in it impact on the member’s grade and pay. If a member goes through the evaluation procedures, including the appeal system which should exist, and is still unhappy, they should consult their BECTU Rep.
