Position Description

The Position Description form (PD) is the primary source of information about positions at USF and is the University’s official position description document.  The PD is used to classify positions.

The PD is very user-friendly, consisting of check boxes and fill-in fields. Completing the entire form should take approximately 30-60 minutes.

The PD is published as a fill-in form in MS-Word.  You can access it here, from the HR Forms List under Classification & Compensation, or from links in Classification Procedures.  Save the document by clicking on "File->Save As," to save the form for your use.
