Classification is concerned with the relative value of jobs within an organization.
The concern is with the job, not the individual occupying the position. The strengths or weaknesses of the incumbent are not considered. A PIQ is a document which describes the actual duties and responsibilities performed in each position and is maintained in the Department of Human Resources. A PIQ must be completed by the incumbent or hiring official for all classified positions. The PIQ must be completed and submitted with the signature of the employee, the immediate supervisor and department head PIQs which are incomplete or do not have the appropriate signatures will be returned to the supervisor.
