<p>DWP uses two job evaluation schemes, which are widely utilised across the Civil
Service.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>1. Job Evaluation and Grading Support (JEGS),
an analytical points-based system which is used by trained evaluators to rank roles
from AA to Grade 6. This also incorporates Grading Guidance which provides an analytical
matching of posts based on JEGS, a good level of assurance and is less resource intensive
than a full evaluation.</p><p> </p><p>2. Job Evaluation for Senior Posts (JESP) which
is similar to JEGS but used to evaluate posts in the Senior Civil Service.</p><p>
</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>DWP evaluates all new roles and roles where there has been
a fundamental or material change in job content using one of these schemes.</p><p>
