The job evaluation process at UHB is as follows:

Step one

All new or changed posts must be submitted to the appropriate division/directorate for internal approval.

Step two

The agreed job description, person specification, organisation chart and sign off sheet should be sent to the Job Evaluation team.

Email: JobEvaluation@uhb.nhs.uk

For reevaluations, the original job description and person specification highlighting the changes should be submitted along with a job evaluation form.

Step three

The job will be evaluated by the job evaluation panel that consists of three people, one of which will be a union representative.

Step four

Approved

The HR Governance team will email the outcome from the panel evaluation to the line manager who must then issue the member of staff with a variation of contract letter.

Declined

The occupied post will be reevaluated. The line manager will confirm the panel outcome to the member of staff in writing and will provide a copy of job evaluation panel scores.

The member of staff has the right to appeal within 14 calendar days of receipt of the notification of the outcome.
