Job Standards

A Job Standard is a description of the scope, key responsibilities, and knowledge and skill requirements of a specific job level within a family. In UC Berkeley's job structure, jobs with similar duties will share a common job standard.

At UC Berkeley, we have job standards for non-represented and represented positions:

  • Non-represented employee job standards can be found in the Berkeley Job Builder. (CalNet authentication required)

Use the Berkeley Job Builder for vacancies and reclassification requests involving NON-REPRESENTED positions.

Use the Represented Job Description Template  (Word) for vacancies or reclassification requests involving represented positions.

For Staff Research Associate (SRA) positions, in addition to the job description template, please complete the SRA addendum  (Word).

For represented positions, there are also Supplemental Guidelines found in this section.

For questions, please contact Compensation at compdesk@berkeley.edu.
