Riassunto

Excerpt from Job Evaluation Methods

Everyone in industry today, from top management down through the rank and file, needs to know about job evaluation. The methods and the results Of job evaluation Significantly. Affect policy making, public relations, collective bargaining, the day-to-day operations of business concerns, and, of course, all phases Of industrial rela tions on all levels before and after hiring.

This volume - like the first edition of 1946 - presents its subject analytically according to the functional steps that comprise the evaluation procedure. Each chapter is confined to a single phase of the whole procedure. Thus successive phases such as policies, methods, measuring scales, etc., are treated one at a time so that each can be investigated thoroughly, comparatively, and impartially. The analytic approach followed in this volume has several impor tant advantages. It gives a sound, logical, and easily understood presentation. It makes possible the comparison and selection of appropriate measures to fit any particular set of conditions. And finally, this approach fully stands the test of practical use in devising job evaluation plans and in making or modifying installations.

Since the first edition of this book, job evaluation has become far more widespread and experience with its methods has matured. This Second Edition takes into account all the new applications and successful procedures. For example, job evaluation has been applied to many' jobs previously exempt, such as supervisory, technical, and high-level executive positions, and many of the recent, well-known cases are described and compared step by step. Much material has been added to the treatment Of rate structures for solv ing the problems peculiar to this field; and numerous combinations are worked out both in table and chart form to Show the effects Of assignable variables. The discussion of merit rating (which may or may not supplement job evaluation plans in actual practice) now includes the findings of psychologists who worked during World War II to establish more reliable man-rating. A wholly new chapter which high-spots the principles of wage incentive methods has also been added. Many other changes have been made throughout the text to insure accuracy and a detailed, up-to-date exposition.
