The classification level takes into consideration the duties, accountability and responsibility of a position. The job description is used to determine the classification level of the position and categorizes positions into different groups (i.e. AD-3, TO-2, IS-4, etc…) based on predetermined standards within the job categories. The classification level determines the salary range for the position. It is important to note that NRC has two duties-based job categories groups: Research Officers (RO) and Research Council Officer (RCO). In these categories where a candidate is placed along the salary scale depends on the level of individual contribution in specific areas such as Contributions to Science and Technology, or Contributions to Clients. In all other classifications (duties-based) a candidate’s education and experience will determine where he/she is placed on the salary scale. In all cases relativity with other employees is taken into consideration.
