Guideline for Point Method

$[$Problem Set $-$ I$]$

$1.$ Review the job descriptions

$-$ Consider common key factors for success $($compensable$)$ of this organization.

$2.$ Define Compensable Factors

$-$ Determine compensable factors $(3-5)$ from Job Descriptions

$-$ For simplicity, decide to use one of the existing job evaluation plans:

NEMA plan or Hay plan.

$-$ Describe why you chose the job evaluation plan. $($Describe the reason before the job evaluation tables.$)$

$3.$ Weight the factors according to importance

$-$ Weights could be different by its importance. But once they are decided, they should be applied to all the jobs in the same way.

$-$ The sum should be $100\%.$

$4.$ Scaling the factors

$-$ For simplicity, all factors are to be evaluated, using $5$ degrees.

$($Disregard the description of degrees in Exhibit $5\mathrm{.}13)$

$-$ Evaluate each job, using the template of plan you chose.

o If necessary, you can make sub$-$factors.

o You need to cut$-$and$-$paste this job evaluation table for each job.

$-$ Add up the job evaluation points for each job.

$5.$ Job Structure

$-$ Rank the jobs, based on the job evaluation points $($high to low$)$ for each job groups $($Managerial vs$.$ Technical$).$

Compensable Factors

Determine compensable factors $(3-5)$ from Job Descriptions. For simplicity, you can use one of the existing job evaluation plans: NEMA plan or Hay plan.

$($For evaluating the jobs, you can cut$-$and$-$paste the template of your plan.$)$

$$ Describe why you chose this job evaluation plan in one paragraph.

Weighting the Factors

$$ Justify the way you weighted the compensable factors and sub$-$factors.

$($You can use bullet points if necessary$)$
