Four degrees should be sufficient for rating the various jobs. For example, the four degrees for education level are identified as: 1=High School/GED 2=Associates 3-Bachelors 4=Masters/Graduate Points are then calculated by multiplying the degrees by the weights. You present an example of how this point scheme is applied to the front desk receptionist benchmark job (see below). The committee agrees with the approach. Compensable Factor Job evaluation for front desk receptionist Degree (1,2,3,4) Weight Points Skill (50%) -Education Level 25% 25 - Degree of Technical Skills 25% 25 Responsibility (30%) - Scope of Control 1 10% 10 Impact of Job 2 20% 40 Effort (20%) Degree of Problem Solving 10% 10 - Task Complexity 1 10% 10 Total Points 120 points The next task is to calculate the job evaluation points for the remaining benchmark jobs using the established compensable factors and specified weights above. In other words, the degrees of each remaining benchmark job must be determined based on a logical rationale, and then the total job evaluation points for each benchmark job can be calculated. To do so, consult the job descriptions in Appendix A. >> Task 2: Calculate the job evaluation points for the administrative assistant, payroll assistant, operational analyst, and benefits manager jobs. Provide a rationale for assigning specific degrees to the various jobs. (Fill in the tables in the next two pages)
