Staffing Models in Workday ?

Staffing Models in Workday ?

Workday supports 2 types of staffing models. These staffing models provide a different level of control over staffing and support different staffing goals.

They are :

-Position management

-Job management

1) Position management

Position management provides the greatest control over hiring, as it allows you to define separate hiring rules and restrictions for each position. They group workers into a management hierarchy.

Key Features:

-You must specify the number of positions to fill.

-An open, approved position is required before you can hire, promote, transfer, or demote workers.

-Each position you create can have its own definition and hiring restrictions

2) Job management

Job management provides the least control over the definition of individual positions. The hiring restrictions you define apply to all jobs in the supervisory organization, and you can define only one set of hiring restrictions per organization. In addition, you aren't required to set specific limits on the number of jobs that can be filled. For this reason, job management is useful for organizations that prefer to define broad job requirements. These organizations rely on staffing workflow and approvals to control the number of workers in a supervisory organization.

Key Features

-Hiring isn't limited to a predefined number of openings.

-You do not have to create a separate, open position for each job you want to fill.

-Any hiring restrictions you define apply equally to all jobs in the organization

Hiring Restrictions

Hiring restrictions define the rules and conditions for holding a job in a position or job management organization and enable you to:

-Limit staffing to specific job families and job profiles.

-Restrict the locations where a job or position can be filled.

-Define the required qualifications, experience, and skill levels of workers hired into a job or position (position management organizations only).

-Limit staffing for a job or position to a specific worker type (employees or contingent workers).

-Limit staffing for a job or position to a specific time type (full or part-time workers).

Job Profiles:

In Workday, positions and jobs use job profiles as their foundation. Job Profile enables you to describe general charactersistics of a position and idenfity special skills,training or other qualifications. A Job profile can be assigned to multiple positions.
