JOB EVALUATION & JOB ANALYSIS



Job Analysis vs Job Evaluation

Job analysis and job evaluation are two issues that are very important for HR professionals in any organization. People are often confused between these two concepts and treat them as being same. The fact is they pertain to totally different aspects of a job and enable one to know not just different roles and responsibilities associated with a job but also the worth of a job in comparison with other jobs in an organization. Let us take a closer look at these terms and what they really mean to an employee and the management of an organization.

 What is Job Evaluation?

There are many jobs inside an organization and they are ranked in terms of their relative importance. The point to remember is that it is jobs according to their content and not those who are holding them that are ranked in job evaluation. Objectives of any job evaluation program should be well documented so that there is no untoward bias while evaluating jobs. The program finally ends with deciding the wages and perks associated with different jobs in an organization. 

What is Job analysis?

Job analysis is a part of any job evaluation program but actually precedes job evaluation. Job analysis is vital to rank it in a hierarchy of jobs which is what job evaluation aims it. Job analysis is the process of gathering all information and data about a job so as to be able to successfully indulge in job description and its specification. 

Job analysis is important from the point of view of prospective employees as well. A job analysis gives in detail the skills required to perform a job, the qualifications, physical and mental demands, education, experience, various responsibilities associated with the job (such as responsibility towards machines and equipment's as well as responsibility towards safety of other around), and working conditions with the hazards associated with the job.

Thomas International – Instrument – PPA – Personal Profile Analysis

Profiling People

Personal Profile Analysis (PPA)

PPA is used to capture and ascertain a person’s behavior at work place. The person is asked to fill the PPA form. Thinking of himself at work place he chooses words that describe him most and least. The form is then analyzed by Thomas Key software and Provides different reports providing information about a person’s Behavioral make-up and working style, behavioral modifications at work place, expected behavior under pressure conditions, motivators, fears, value to the organization, strengths & limitations, extent of fit with the job etc. 

The Personal Profile Analysis is a work place related behavioral inventory. 

It gives an idea of the preferred style of a person, that is to say the unique behavioral characteristics that define a person. This indicates the basic behavioral orientation of a person and also gives insights into what motivates that person and the presence of stress/frustrations traced to their possible causes.


The reports describe a person on three different aspects:

Work Mask: 
Describes an individual’s behavior at work place and modifications he is making as compared to his self-image.

Pressure Profile:
 Describes how an individual is expected to behave under pressure Situations.

Self Image: 
Describes an individual’s inherent or core behavior.
