Instructions:
• This document is intended to supplement the Position Information Questionnaire (PIQ) (SFN 2572) and the
Job Duty Analysis Questionnaire in an effort to analyze the physical and mental work demands of a job and
the environmental conditions in which it is performed.
• Physical demands sometimes describe the customary method of achieving an essential function. Physical
demands may, in some instances, be accomplished using other methods.
• An analysis should be completed for each position. Documentation for jobs with multiple positions, unless
the position duties/tasks are essentially different, will likely be able to be duplicated for all the positions in
the class. In the case of multiple position jobs, be sure to identify any unique differences of a specific
position.
• When completing the form, look at the job from a typical/average work day perspective.
• This form must be completed with both incumbent and supervisor input. Ideally, the incumbent will
complete the form, the supervisor will review it, and the document will be finalized after discussion has
occurred between both individuals.
