1. Job Descriptions
   As ‘importing’ job descriptions as templates can be highly risky (if only because they may easily support actions in violation of the fair discrimination legislation), may I encourage you to use/acquire techniques of analysis of tasks and of jobs. ‘Task Analysis’ by B Kirwan & L Ainsworth, Taylor & Francis, 1991 is a v.good overview

2. Job Descriptions vs Job Profiles
   We are use job profiles which is connect to a performance management system and reviewed on a quarterly basis whichimpacts on the cost of living increases.
   Job descriptions is more a task analysis of what the employee must do and at times does not show how the employee should be measure against these tasks.
   I will be happy to forward susch a template to you and an example.

3. We are developing role profiles .
   The role profile contains purpose,values,duties,competences and key tasks.We are still developing,but happy to let you have a copy.
