Job and Task Analysis

A Job and Task Analysis (JTA) is a complete and thorough review of job and tasks. A JTA consists of breaking down jobs and tasks into specific behaviors and competencies. By conducting a JTA we can determine:

  • The difficulty, importance and frequency of job tasks.
  • The duties and tasks that lead to successful performance of a job.
  • The elements that characterize a task.
  • The tools or resources needed to assist the individual performing each task.

PCS will gather data and provide a report which outlines a particular job position and all of the tasks associated with that position. This information can be used to determine training program content as well as define job duties. PCS will:

  • Provide the JTA electronically.
  • Include data sheets outlining the difficulty, frequency, and importance (D.F.I.) of each task.
  • Provide a project manager to oversee and coordinate development of the JTA.
  • Work on-site as needed for JTA development, data gathering, walk downs and interviews.
