FUNCTIONAL JOB ANALYSIS (FJA)
The ECS Functional Job Analysis (FJA),
is exactly what it sounds like: a thorough analysis of a particular
job, to be used for a variety of functions.
| The process is fairly
simple: |
- An ECS therpist will come to the workplace and observe
the job in question using state-of-the-art equipment
and the latest observation techniques.
- The therapist will get input from the business owner,
HR staff, job supervisors and pre-existing employees
- After writing up the report (called the Functional Job
Description or FJD), the therapist will verify its accuracy
by obtaining signed verification from a supervisor and
employees currently performing the job in question.
- Within a few days, usually overnight, the employer will
have a copy of the Functional Job Description (FJD) and
will have it explained, if needed, by the same therapist
who created it.
|
| The FJD can be used in
myriad ways: |
- To limit risk by redesigning the workspace, changing
work practices, employee training and conditioning.
- To create a Pre-Work Screen (often
referred to as a Post-Offer/Pre-Work Screen).
- The basis for Job Matching/Job Banks – Employers
can refer to a group of FJDs to identify the best positions
for new hires and even pre-existing employees who may perform
better if placed in a job more suited to their natural
abilities.
- To develop Stay-at-Work/Return-to-Work Programs – Designed
to ensure aging employees maintain their highest possible
productivity and that injured employees transition back
into the workforce as quickly and safely as possible.
