Is Your Position Description Up-to-Date?
Administrators and supervisors are responsible for ensuring that position descriptions accurately reflect the work performed by their staff. As part of the performance evaluation process, administrators and staff are asked to review and update their position descriptions. If you haven’t yet done so, please go to the Job Wizard and review your position description to ensure it accurately reflects your current role. For position description guidance, including Job Wizard help, please visit the New Supervisor Toolkit.
