Explain Job Roles in Job Families for competency mapping

Job Roles defined in Job Families are used for competency mapping.

Job Families can be created in any way the customer requires. For example, customer 1 wants job families created for major organizational functions, such as Human Resources and Information Technology. However, customer 2 wants job families created for the major employment levels of the company, such as Executives or Exempt Employees.

Job Roles organize the different types of jobs included in a job family. For example, with the Information Technology job family, the following job roles may exist: IT Manager, Database Administrator, System Administrator, etc. Associating job roles with the job family allows competencies to be associated with each specific job role. A job family can have many job roles.

• Job Families are flexible and can be tailored to the customer's organizational or employment structure.
• Job Roles represent specific jobs within a Job Family, such as IT Manager or System Administrator.
• Competencies can be directly mapped to specific Job Roles within a Job Family.
• A single Job Family can encompass multiple Job Roles.
