BENCHMARKING JOB AND WORK CHARACTERISTICS
Jimmy L. Mitchell, Institute for Job & Occupational Analysis, Chair
Benchmarking yields information that improves competitiveness and develops
workers. We first describe a broad, comparative approach, taking a management perspective. Next we delve into refined benchmarking practices from the perspective of industrial psychologists. We show how generalized work analysis is related to benchmarking, and we identify linkages to related constructs.
