What is a Position Description Form?
The Position Description Form provides an accurate and detailed description of the duties, responsibilities, skills, knowledge, and necessary experience associated with each position. The Human Resource Department should have a signed Position Description Form on file for every employee. A written description of each position is developed by the Department Head/Dean/Director, and revised regularly (oftentimes with the help of the employee) to ensure that it is current. All new or amended position descriptions must be approved by the appropriate Chancellor, Vice Chancellor or designee, hereinafter referred to as Administrative Officer, and the Manager of Classification and Compensation. Most colleges and administrative divisions on campus have a designated Human Resource Liaison. They can assist you with processing HR actions such as classification requests and off-cycle reviews.
