Oracle HRMS's job definition functions can contribute to the efficient management of your business and, where required, help you satisfy statutory reporting requirements. A fully specified job enables you to:
Select the best candidate for a role.
Position the job within your industry using standard job evaluation schemes and industry salary surveys.
Specify privileges or authorities attached to the role.
When you define a job in Oracle HRMS, you can specify:
The competencies the worker must have. You can copy into the job definition competencies you defined as essential for your enterprise, and you can copy the competencies required for a job to the competence profile of the worker. Thus, you can describe competencies consistently at the business, job, and person levels.
The grades of potential workers.
Work choices, such as work locations and work schedules, that are suitable or acceptable for the job.
Having specified the job requirements (and also recorded the competencies and work preferences of individual applicants and employees), you can use Oracle HRMS's suitability matching functions to identify candidates for roles and roles for candidates.
Enterprises usually need to assess key activities of their organization, such as job evaluation and salary setting, in relation to industry standards. Accordingly, Oracle HRMS enables you to:
Record job evaluation scores. For a particular job, you select an appropriate job evaluation system and record the job's score.
Compare the salary for a particular job in your enterprise with those for comparable roles in the industry.
Specify whether a job is a benchmark job or relates to one. A benchmark job is one that represents multiple similar jobs in reports and salary surveys.
You can define all roles in an enterprise as jobs. Such roles include those associated with the main business of the enterprise, such as sales manager or clerk, as well as those considered supplementary, such as fire warden or safety representative.
Oracle HRMS organizes jobs into job groups. (Some statutory reports require job group as an input value.) For each business group, there is a default job group to which standard HRMS jobs must belong. Supplementary roles, however, must not belong to the default job group. You can define additional job groups for these supplementary roles and for use in Oracle Projects. Job groups you define can apply globally or within a single business group.
