Water Industry Job Descriptions & Americans With Disabilities Act Manual

This manual is an essential tool for JPIA members in developing job descriptions for their employees. Job descriptions are critical tools for every organization and they  provide:

  • An efficient description of the work performed by employees;
  • Information for planning and budgeting purposes;
  • Assistance in recruitment and selection of staff;
  • Information for the development of an equitable salary structure; and
  • A basis for the implementation of personnel management procedures, such as employee evaluations, promotions, fitness-for-duty, disciplinary actions, workers' compensation issues, and more.

The Manual is broken into several sections to include information on the Americans With Disabilities Act, the employment process, and development of job descriptions. The Manual also includes 64 specific water district job descriptions that were developed with the assistance and coordination of resources from JPIA members. Although they may not exactly fit every position, they can be customized to fit.
