About working conditions

Working Conditions are a type of library item. These library items can be added to an optional Working Conditions category on job descriptions. You can:

• Add the same working condition to as many job descriptions as you’d like.
• Create working conditions directly on a job. 
• Rename the “Working Conditions” library type. Learn more

Creating working conditions in libraries

Working Conditions are stored in groups and sub-groups in the Working Conditions library. You might place all working conditions in one group, or divide them into groups such as “Hours of Work” or “Physical Environment”. Working Conditions can be created and managed in Libraries, but Jobs is where they’re used. When you’re building a job description, you can add working conditions from the Working Conditions library.

To create a working condition group or sub-group

1. Navigate to Content > Libraries.
2. Select Working Conditions in the drop-down at the top of the page.
3. Click Create and select Group.
4. Leave (Create as top level group) selected or select a parent group and click Next.
5. Enter a group name and click Save.

5. Type in or paste a working condition such as “Work 8 hours a day”.
6. Press Enter on your keyboard to create a new line that’s treated as a separate item. If you paste a list, each bullet is a separate item. This means you can paste content copied from other formats like Microsoft Word to create those items all at once.
