UJ Job Evaluation Policy

Refer to pages 3-5 of the UJ Job Evaluation Policy:

Page 3 (point 1.1):

“Job evaluation is the process of systematically determining a relative internal value of a job in an organisation. It is a process whereby jobs are placed in a rank order according to overall demands placed upon the jobholder. It therefore provides a basis for a fair and orderly grading structure and underpins the University of Johannesburg’s (UJ) commitment to equal pay for work of equal value.”

Page 5 (point 5.1):

Job evaluation is used as an objective process to determine the relative size or weight of jobs. As such, job evaluation is aimed at providing a defensible and equitable basis for determining and managing internal pay relativity between jobs.”
