The PDQ process is the process by which NFP will gain an understanding of the work performed by full time and part time benefitted employees. Employee and manager participation in this process is critical to the success of this project. Employees and Managers will follow these steps to complete the PDQ process:
PRELIMINARY NOTE: Every individual/employee should complete only one Option form (A, B or C) for their own position. This document contains all 3 forms. In addition to completing their own form, reviewers will approve the submissions for all designated employees.
|
IF… |
THEN |
|
|
You believe that your job description is accurate, meaning it reflects at least 80% of the major duties of your position…. |
Use Option A |
|
|
You believe that your job description is less than 80% accurate of the major duties of |
Use Option B |
|
|
You believe that your job description is significantly differen from the major duties of your position… |
Use Option C |
3. Designated Managers/Reviewers will review the documents and add their electronic signature to the forms. The Option C form requires reviewers’ input. If a reviewer wishes to add any comments to either Option A or Option B, they should be added to the electronic form.
Questions should be directed to oremcompproject@nfp.com or 1-800-553-3903.
If performing the duties of both roles is part of your permanent job, then the PDQ should capture all of those duties. If you are acting in or performing additional duties on a temporary basis, then the PDQ should capture the duties of your assigned job only.
You should capture the duties of your permanent role in the PDQ process, not the duties of any temporary or interim assignment.
Yes, managers will be asked to review the job descriptions for any vacant positions by following the PDQ process.
You will be asked to complete a similar PDQ process, but in hardcopy format. Your supervisor will receive information for your position and will provide printed copies of your job description and PDQ Option Form. You will follow the instructions as outlined in question 1 above. When completed you will electonically submit the Form to your supervisor.
No, this project will not include temporary employees. This study includes all full time and some part time City employees.
Yes, NFP is an independent consulting firm, with no affiliations to any City personnel.
Yes, all benefits, including health care, retirement, disability, life insurance, and paid time off will be reviewed. In addition, other benefits such as education reimbursement etc. will also be considered.
We understand that not all jobs will easily match to the market, which is why jobs will be matched to the market based on job content level.
Yes, the cost of living of a location is a component of the labor market rates.
Jobs are hard to fill for a number of reasons, including the supply of labor, the wages the City is willing to pay, and the design of the job itself. These and other reasons will be studied and addressed in different ways depending on the job.
There will be no pay taken away from employees due to the results of the compensation and benefit survey.
