"The Dimensional Job Grading^TM system is designed to dramatically reduce the influence of the supervisor’s rank and focus on the work activities of the secretary. The system is made up of an objective, task-based questionnaire, which covers the full range of secretarial duties and can be customized to meet specific company needs. The accompanying software is used to efficiently analyze the responses for each job."

"An Objective Look at Secretarial Pay and Status"

HRMagazine, July 1997

"We already had a job evaluation system but needed a better way to collect information. The questionnaire gave us instant credibility with our secretarial group and managers. The amount of research that went into this document is evident—the items are both fresh and accurate."

"We have decided to use the questionnaire in lieu of a job description. It helps us save time in terms of what we need to know so we can price the job, and it saves the secretaries time providing the information."

"This system appealed to us because we knew our secretaries were doing very different activities, but our current instrument wasn’t drawing out these differences. We found the questionnaire contained items that were easy to understand by both secretaries and managers but could not be easily manipulated—it gave us clean, objective data."

"The questionnaire has been key in enabling us to objectively determine and understand what each of our secretaries is doing and where they fit into our structure."
