Human Resource Work Stratified by Requisite Work Levels
By Michelle Malay Carter on October 8, 2009
I have a colleague who will be speaking to a society of Human Resource Professionals on the topic of work levels, and it’s meta model, Requisite Organization, developed by Elliott Jaques. He asked me for help in developing a hierarchy of typical work within a Human Resource function.
Requisite Work Levels
Since work levels is a recurring topic here at Mission Minded Management, I thought it might be helpful to publish another set of “real life” examples of work by level.
Sample Longest Task by Work Level:
Work Level 4:
Design and implement a comprehensive strategic talent management system. (2-5 years)
Work Level 3:
Write and implement the operational plan for the roll out of one element within a strategic talent management system. Build feedback loops, assess, and refine processes into a set of best practices. (1 to 2 years)
Work Level 2:
Manage a 4 - 12 month project to implement one section within a serial “roll out” of a new HR methodology or program.
Work Level 1:
Support HR department by providing products as defined, i.e reports, material production. Or by delivering administrative services as trained, i.e. inventory maintenance, scheduling, shipping. (1 day to 3 months)
What level of work is your role?
