Procedure for Determining Grades of Officer Positions.

Abstract

This report describes a procedure for determining appropriate grades for officer jobs. The method involves application of a nine-variable equation for computing a composite score and use of a conversion table for translating this score into a specific grade level, lieutenant through colonel. An explanation and illustration of the seven steps in the method is provided as follows: (1) preparation and review of a job description, (2) obtaining five factor ratings, (3) obtaining grade ratings, (4) derivation of organization level variable values, (5) derivation of supervisor's judged-grade value, (6) computation of an integer-weighted composite score, and (7) conversion of the composite score to an equivalent officer grade.
