Main Job Duties Sample Clauses

Main Job Duties. Describe the main job duties (those which take at least 5% of your work week to perform) assigned to your position beginning with the tasks that are most important or responsible. Try to group similar tasks together into major duties and, for each major duty, estimate the percent of time on a weekly basis that you devote to the task. If a duty is performed less frequently than on a weekly basis but it is an important job duty assigned to you, please include information about this as well. Describe any responsibilities for determining methods of work, or innovative or creative responsibilities that are part of the job. Breaking a complex assignment down into its individual elements will make your job responsibilities clearer. See the following examples: Avoid job responsibility statements like:  I have responsibility for all of our department's budgets. Instead describe tasks:  I maintain all of our department's purchasing and payroll records for both state funds and grants and contracts.  I review all purchase requests for compliance with agency/institution and funding agency policy. I review any problem requests with the purchaser to ensure that all expenditures comply with applicable policies and regulations. In the right-hand columns indicate the % of time each duty requires. Check those duties which you believe fall outside your current job classification and specify how long you have performed these duties.
