Collecting information from employees performing the same job in different departments can help ensure a broader and more accurate representation of the job. This can also help identify differences and similarities in job tasks across different departments. Using one tool for gathering information can limit the scope and validity of the job analysis process. Relying solely on the Human Resource Manager may also limit the breadth of information collected. Conducting group interviews without supervisors present may not necessarily ensure accuracy as some employees may not feel comfortable expressing their true opinions in the presence of their managers. Developing complex questions using technical jargon specific to the organization can also limit the understanding and participation of employees who are not familiar with the terminology.
