Job Analysis involves developing position descriptions defining the purpose, objectives, roles and responsibilities of various positions in the organization together with the person specifications for each position. An interactive process is adopted to ensure high degree of involvement of client personnel in the exercise.

A solid job evaluation system is an integral part of any organization’s compensation program to ensure internal equity within your organization. Consulting Brains can assist by creating an effective job evaluation system or retooling your existing program to make it work more effectively.

A common outcome of job evaluation is the need for new or revised job descriptions. We can assist by providing the expertise to help you create or enhance your job description library.
 
Process Improvements

Over time some systems can get so mired in ‘process’ that they become inefficient. We can facilitate you in looking at refining all your HR systems, reviewing your best practices or requiring attention to one specific area, department or staffing level.

Consulting Brains will conduct a thorough analysis and create an effective solution to optimize your HR systems and processes.

Exit Interviews
Exit interviews can provide valuable information to employers. However, exiting employees may be reluctant to share information for fear of ‘burning bridges’ and companies lose out on valuable and timely information.

Consulting Brains provides third-party exit interview process. Questions are customized for the employer. Employee anonymity is guaranteed so exiting employees are more comfortable to be forthcoming in their responses. Companies are provided with detailed quantitative and qualitative reports (monthly or quarterly), which can help them to address internal issues and reduce turnover.
