1. Overview.

• Meaning. Task qualification refers to a composite of knowledge, experience and attitudes required for an employee to perform specified tasks and jobs. In other words, it is a set of criteria an employee needs to comply with in order to be able to do assigned tasks at a required performance level.
• Criteria. There are three major criteria to evaluate task qualification of an employee or a job seeker. Below in this checklist we describe the criteria.
  • Knowledge
  • Experience
  • Attitude

2. Knowledge.

• Overview. When we talk about task knowledge, we mean some information and abilities a person must know and have to do some job. Below we describe 4 requirements an employee is supposed to meet to prove his/her knowledge.
• Describe a task. If a worker can describe an assigned task, then most likely he/she understands the task and has necessary knowledge to complete it.
• Evaluate a task. If a worker knows how to check a task against progress, goals, costs and expectations, then this person can estimate task performance and determine if there’s a need to strengthen or weaken the implementation effort.
• Revise a task. If an employee knows how to make necessary changes to a task, then most likely this individual can efficiently respond to changes if needed.
• Report on a task. If an employee realizes when and how to report on an assigned task, then this person can communicate necessary information about the task to senior management and colleagues.

• Period. How many days/weeks/months/years has a worker spent on doing similar tasks? For example: your employee has a 2-year experience in leading project teams. But you need a person with a 5-year experience in team leading. Obviously the candidate doesn’t match the requirements. So look for other candidates.
• Qualification. What tools, equipment and systems did an employee use to do similar tasks in the previous occupation/employment place? You must be sure that the qualification level of your worker is sufficient for performing tasks.
• Mistakes. How many mistakes or faults has a person made when doing similar tasks? You can check this information by reviewing job records and history of your worker as well as by requesting the previous manager/employer.

4. Attitude.

• Overview. Employee attitude determines how willingly a worker does an assigned task. If your candidate expresses readiness to do more work at less time, then this person has more changes to get a new job or assignment. Take the following items into consideration when examining employee attitudes.
• Initiative. A better employee is an employee demonstrating initiative and performing more tasks without prodding.
• Change management. An ability to adequately react to ...
