A systematic comparison done in order to determine the worth of one job relative to another. Job evaluation is aimed at determining a job's relative worth. The basic procedure is to compare the content of jobs in relation to one another, for example in terms of their effort, responsibility, and skills.
There are two basic approaches you could use for comparing several jobs. You could take a more intuitive approach. You might decide that one job is 'more important' than another and not dig any deeper into why in terms of specific job-related factors. Another alternative is to compare the jobs by focusing on certain basic factors they have in common; these factors are called Compensable factors.
Job evaluation is mostly a judgmental process, one that demands close cooperation between supervisors and personnel specialists and their representatives.

Definition
Job evaluation is a formal process for:
determining the relative value of various jobs within the organization, and
assigning jobs to a grade structure or some other hierarchical index of job value.
The term "work evaluation" often has the same meaning as "job evaluation," but also includes methods for valuing work that are not centered on job tasks. For example, work evaluation could be based on roles or competencies.
Purpose
Job evaluation helps organizations establish coherent relationships among positions. Common functions of job evaluation include:
identify "families" of occupations,
identify skills and competencies needed for successful performance,
evaluate "fit" between candidates and job requirements, and
develop career paths.
develop a grade structure and pay ranges,
define key responsibilities and skills to aid in conducting salary surveys, and
assign jobs to a grade structure.
determine whether different jobs have comparable requirements and responsibilities, and
ensure compliance with the Equal Pay
Method
using going market rates as the primary determinant of a job's worth and pay.
ordering jobs based on their relative value to the organization.
determining the job's relationship to a set of predetermined benchmark jobs.
comparing the job to others with similar entry requirements, duties, and responsibilities.
evaluating the job against a predetermined set of factors,
assigning a level or point value for each factor, and
translating the levels or points to a position in the job hierarchy.
