Development of job descriptions for pharmacy workers

Practical experience shows that any enterprise as a whole and each of its employees can function successfully only if there is a clear regulation of their activities, enshrined in the relevant organizational and administrative documents: job descriptions of employees.
Therefore, in any, even the smallest pharmacy or pharmacy, it is advisable to have job descriptions for all staff, which should define the rights and responsibilities of each employee.

Job Descriptions are organizational documents. It is these documents that organize the work of the pharmacy enterprise, define the task and functions, describe the procedure for interaction between employees and the activities of each of them. Along with this, organizational documents are necessary for a comprehensive objective assessment of pharmacy workers and are often used in resolving labor disputes.

Not all pharmacy institutions use job descriptions in their work, and those that do often make certain omissions in their development. For example, in some cases, job descriptions are developed only for part of the pharmacy staff, which significantly reduces their practical value. Often, when drawing up job descriptions, not all requirements for the scope and nature of a specialist’s work are taken into account. This leads to the fact that some of the functions assigned to the employee are not performed or are not performed in full.

On the other hand, organizational documents must be drawn up in accordance with the Decree of the State Standard of the Russian Federation dated July 31, 1997 N 273 “Unified system of organizational and administrative documentation. Requirements for document preparation” (USORD) (as amended on January 21, 2000), those. have unified form and text structure. Many specialists, when developing organizational documents, focus on the content part, composing the most detailed text, which is certainly important, because this is the main part of the document. However, we must not forget that a good text becomes a document only after it has been given legal force, i.e. the document must be in the appropriate form with all the necessary details correctly entered into the document.

Job descriptions must ensure rational distribution professional responsibilities between all employees of the enterprise, clearly and unambiguously define the rights and responsibilities that are vested in each performer in a certain area of ​​work, taking into account his knowledge, prevailing working conditions and the needs of the pharmacy.

The immediate development of job descriptions in each pharmacy should be preceded by certain preparatory work. At this stage, all regulatory documents regulating the activities of officials should be studied in detail, the entire scope of work should be divided into component parts so that each of them can subsequently be assigned to a specific performer. Next, a list of functions and responsibilities for all employees should be defined. At the same time, the composition and volume labor functions must ensure uniform and full workload of all performers during the working day, eliminating duplication and “no man's land” in work.

When hiring new employees, when changing organizationally - technical specifications, volume and content of the work of pharmacy workers, functional job descriptions must be developed again.

Structure and content of job description

The job description may include the following sections:
I. General provisions;
II. Employee functions;
III. Job responsibilities;
IV. Rights;
V. Relationships (connections by position);
VI. The employee's responsibility for the assigned area of ​​work.

The “General Provisions” of the job description establish the scope of the employee’s activities; this section formulates the main task assigned to this employee, qualification requirements, his direct subordination, and the procedure for filling the position (who is appointed and dismissed from work). The same section of the job description should contain all the regulatory documents that the contractor must follow in his work (orders, instructions, recommendations).

“Employee functions” is a section that defines the specific area of ​​work assigned to the employee and the list of types of work that make up the main areas of the specialist’s activities.

The “Official Responsibilities” section should define actions that ensure high-quality performance of the functions assigned to employees (strict compliance labor regulations and labor discipline, high-quality and timely completion of this or that type of work, systematic improvement of one’s qualifications, etc.).

The “Rights” section of the job description reflects the rights that the employee is given to perform his functions and responsibilities. They must stem from the main tasks and responsibilities of the official and reflect the degree of independence in work.

The section “Relationships (connections by position)” lists the circle of persons with whom the specialist enters into official relationships and exchanges information. In the same section of the job description, the procedure for interchangeability should be clearly defined: who this employee replaces during the absence of another employee, as well as who replaces him.

The “Responsibility” section should indicate the most important functions, for failure to perform which this official bears direct disciplinary, material and other liability.

The text of the job description, which is local act organization, it is customary to “break it down” into points for ease of perception. Job descriptions must be approved, as a rule, by the first head of the organization. Issues of coordinating the texts of job descriptions with certain officials are resolved individually in each pharmacy enterprise, depending on its structure, staffing and established traditions. In many organizations, job descriptions are coordinated with lawyers.

Job descriptions are communicated to the employees of the pharmacy enterprise against signature by issuing an familiarization visa, which includes: the personal signature of the employee, its transcript and the date of familiarization. If an employee refuses to endorse a job description, an act of refusal to endorse is drawn up in the presence of at least two disinterested witnesses.

To make changes and additions to job descriptions, a corresponding order is issued by the head of the organization, which is communicated to the employees of the pharmacy enterprise against signature. The need to issue such an order arises when there is a need to redistribute functions and job responsibilities, during reorganizations, staff reductions, etc. In addition, job descriptions must be replaced and re-approved in the following cases:

When reorganizing a pharmacy enterprise;
- when changing the name of the pharmacy enterprise or its structural unit;
- when changing job titles;
- upon dismissal of a previous employee and replacement of him with another.
