Other Tasks:
It is also the nature of the work of the organisation that tasks and responsibilities are, in many circumstances, unpredictable and variable. All employees are therefore expected to work in a flexible way when the occasion arises so that tasks are not specifically covered by the job description have to be undertaken. These additional duties will normally be compatible with the regular type of work and job purpose. If the additional responsibility or task becomes regular or a frequent part of the staff member’s job, it will be included in the job description in consultation with the staff member.
