Cushway, an independent Human Resources consultant with over 30 years of

experience in HR and employment law, provides guidance for managers faced with creating job descriptions. His book includes more than 200 job descriptions based on actual jobs in fields ranging from finance to information technology. Readers are instructed to use the first section of the book to find a job description that most closely matches the job they are looking for, then to select elements from the second section that may be missing and add them. The author also discusses the importance of job descriptions in areas of recruitment and selection, disciplinary issues, and the job evaluation process. The book also includes a helpful index of jobs by category. The information included here will be useful to managers, HR professionals and others responsible for or involved in the hiring process.
