INTENT AND FUNCTION OF JOB DESCRIPTIONS
Job descriptions assist organizations in ensuring that the hiring process is fairly administered and that 
qualified employees are selected. They are also essential to an effective appraisal system and related 
promotion, transfer, layoff, and termination decisions. Well constructed job descriptions are an integral part 
of any effective compensation system. 
All descriptions have been reviewed to ensure that only essential functions and basic duties have been 
included. Peripheral tasks, only incidentally related to each position, have been excluded. Requirements, 
skills, and abilities included have been determined to be the minimal standards required to successfully 
perform the positions. In no instance, however, should the duties, responsibilities, and requirements 
delineated be interpreted as all-inclusive. Additional functions and requirements may be assigned by 
supervisors as deemed appropriate. 
In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, it is possible that requirements may be modified to 
reasonably accommodate disabled individuals. However, no accommodations will be made which may 
pose serious health or safety risks to the employee or others or which impose undue hardships on the 
organization.
