What to Focus On

  • Job analysis is a process, not a statement.
  • It is performed only on jobs that already exist.
  • It gives information about job title, code number, duties, methods, equipment, and working conditions.
  • Job description is a statement, not a process.
  • It explains the contents of a job.
  • It includes duties, responsibilities, supervision, and working conditions.
  • Job specification is a statement of qualities required for a job.
  • It is prepared after job description.
  • It is also called man specification or employee specification.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Job analysis and job description mean the same thing.

Job specification is prepared before job description because the worker is selected first.

Job specification tells what the job does, while job description tells what kind of person is needed.
