 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.
