What is Job Analysis JOB ANALYSIS: Family of formal methods for describing jobs and human attributes necessary for jobs. Answers Two Major Questions –1. What do people in a particular job do? (Task oriented; TDR) –2. What human characteristics are necessary for a job? (Person oriented; KSAOs) Unit of analysis is the job not the individual. Deals with tasks/requirements for all positions within a job classification or title rather than individual people's jobs

Job Analysis and the Law Section 14.C.2 of the Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures of 1978:Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures of 1978 –“There shall be a job analysis which includes an analysis of the important work behaviors required for successful performance.... Any job analysis should focus on work behavior(s) and the tasks associated with them.” Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) –Requires that job duties and responsibilities be essential functions for job success. –The purpose of essential functions is to help match and accommodate human capabilities to job requirements.
