Looking for Job/ Employment Position Descriptions

[parkfallsautomotive]

I have been in business for quite a few years but am just now getting to the point where I realize that I really need to create and implement job/employment position descriptions. I am looking for someone who already has them implemented and would be willing to share or help me to develop descriptions for apprentice, journeyman and master technicians. I wrote our policies and procedures and am currently working on a Standard Operating Procedures manual for the company but really have no experience or enough background in how to write an effective job description, nor what to really include. If anyone is willing to help me I would greatly appreciate it. You can email me at info@parkfallsautomotive.com and I would be willing to trade or help write policies and procedures and SOP's if you are looking for one. Thank you again.
