EASTERN MICHIGAN UNIVERSITY – Job Group Definitions (& relationship to EEO categories)
See attached list – of EMU positions and job groups as of Fall 2007
Initial Rules
1. Per regulations: Positions in job groups are to have similar sets of skills, efforts and
responsibilities, plus similar wage rates and promotional opportunities
2. Job groups must be organize with EEO categories; but are unique to each employer based on
their type of workforce
3. Goal is to keep job groups with at least 20 employees for meaningful AA analyses; don’t
create lots of small job groups
4. If job titles are exactly alike, regardless of the department, then they are to be assigned the
same job group!
5. If job titles are alike, but have very different sets of skills required, they should be in different
job groups- to do this add the dept. name behind the title to
have them appear as 2 different job titles
