Tennessee municipal primer for setting job qualifications

This primer provides a practical framework for Tennessee cities to determine, and document required and preferred qualifications for municipal jobs using a defensible, job-related process grounded in Title VII disparate-impact principles, Griggs v. Duke Power Co., the Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures (UGESP), ADA considerations, and Tennessee municipal HR practice. It is designed for use when drafting or revising job descriptions, recruitment postings, minimum qualification statements, screening tools, and related job-analysis records.
