POSITION MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW
1 of 10

Position Management is used to organize, establish, and track positions. A "position" is a group of duties and responsibilities to be assigned to an employee. 

Focusing on the position itself allows you to track information related to the position, regardless of whether it is vacant or an employee is assigned to that position.

Position Data is the main table used in Position Management. This is where each position’s information is stored.

There are many different ways in which positions can be set up. 

There are many things an agency must consider when performing position management activities. They must know whether they have Delegated Classification Authority, what types of positions they are allowed to add or reallocate, whether they have enough FTE, whether the position will be classified or unclassified, whether it will regular or temporary, what the FLSA status is, and if they have the authority to determine FLSA status. There are numerous other things to consider when determining positions an agency will need. Agencies should also be familiar with Human Resource policies and procedures in order to correctly create and allocate positions.
