Job classes

Job classes, also known as job families, provide a way to group job codes together for the following functions:

  • Reporting

  • Analyzing wages in the Personnel Administration application

  • Creating employee groups in the Human Resources application

After you assign the job class to one or more job codes, the job class represents of all the job codes to which it is assigned.

You can assign a job class to many job codes, but a job code can only be assigned to one job class.

Example

The Two Rivers Company defines the job class NUR for all its nurses and assigns this job class to each job code grouped under "Nurses". So, the job codes for registered nurse, licensed practical nurse, and nurses' aids all have the same job class.
