Jobs and Multiskilling in the Food System
  • Objectives
  • At the completion of this module, participants
    will be able to
  • Complete a job/skill analysis.
  • Describe appropriate techniques for teaching new
    skills.
  • Identify new skills required by employees to keep
    up with technology.
  • Implement multiskilling techniques.

Jobs and Multiskilling in the Food System
  • Definitions
  • Multiskilling- the ability of an employee to
    perform more than one function or the
    cross-training of an employee in several
    disciplines or tasks.

Jobs and Multiskilling in the Food System
  • Personal Check-In Skills Inventory
  • Can you operate, clean, and sanitize the dish
    machine, meat slicer, chopper, mixer, deep-fat
    fryer, and all the other equipment?
  • Can you operate the computerized cash register
    system?
  • Are you able to cashier through a complete meal
    period without interrupting the customer flow?
  • Would you be able to stand in for a baker and
    produce a quality product?

    are doing and what the job is expected to
    accomplish.
  • Requirements of the job
  • Tasks
  • Duties

  • A Time for Change
  • Job Analysis The study of what the employees
    are doing and what the job is expected to
    accomplish.
  • Requirements of the employee
  • Training or educational tasks
  • Physical demands of the job

Jobs and Multiskilling in the Food System
  • A Time for Change
  • Job Assessment Assess the accuracy of the
    current job description with the information
    derived from the job analysis.
  • Job Description The job description is less
    detailed than the job analysis. Update the job
    descriptions regularly.

Jobs and Multiskilling in the Food System
  • Take Action
  • Advantages of Multiskilling
  • Work force is more flexible.
  • Employees become more aware of the workflow.
  • Employees are better prepared to anticipate
    problems or requirements of other areas.
  • Employees can assume other tasks when there is
    absenteeism.
  • Employees can be moved into other positions at
    peak times of the operation.
  • A new employee at a job may have new ideas to
    fine-tune that job.

10
Jobs and Multiskilling in the Food System
  • Take Action
  • Advantages of Multiskilling
  • Employees overcome feelings of having a dead-end
    job.
  • Jobs remain interesting and challenging.
  • Tedious tasks can be spread around, decreasing
    turnover.
  • Boredom in the workplace is reduced.
  • Cohesiveness is enhanced.

11
Jobs and Multiskilling in the Food System
  • Take Action
  • Disadvantages of Multiskilling
  • Possible reduction in productivity during the
    training period.
  • Increased supervisory time is required until the
    employee is up to speed.
  • Competence assessments may be more detailed than
    in traditional systems.

Jobs and Multiskilling in the Food System
  • Reality Practice Case Study
  • A rural county on the eastern seaboard is
    experiencing a tremendous growth in population.
    The beach has attracted a great deal of tourism,
    increasing the hospitality industry. With that,
    the permanent resident population has truly
    exploded, and the school board has had to build
    two new elementary schools to accommodate the
    influx of students. Mary Smith, the manager at
    Lincoln Elementary with an enrollment of 750, has
    had a stable staff for over ten years. All her
    employees know their jobs well, and Ms. Smith was
    very proud that her staff had won numerous awards
    for zero absenteeism over the years.

13

  • Reality Practice Case Study
  • This year, with the opening of two new schools,
    half of Ms. Smiths staff has requested a
    transfer to the new schools. They have told Ms.
    Smith they really like working with her but they
    want to see what its like working in a new
    school, and the new schools are a little closer
    to their homes. At the end of the school year,
    Ms. Smith will be left with a baker, cold/salad
    prep person, and the dishwasher. She will have
    to replace at least four of her current
    employeestwo cashiers, one vegetable cook, and
    one meat (hot entrée) cook.

  • Reality Practice Case Study Worksheet
  • Could there be another reason why so many of Ms.
    Smiths workers chose to leave their current jobs
    to start with a new manager?
  • With such a stable work force, how could Ms.
    Smith have averted this situation?

15
Jobs and Multiskilling in the Food System
  • Reality Practice Case Study Worksheet
  • Ms. Smith has to determine how she is going to
    utilize her remaining employees. List the skills
    each remaining employee has
  • How many of these skills can be applied to the
    other positions that will be vacant? List the
    skills and positions below

Jobs and Multiskilling in the Food System
  • Checking Out Skill Development
  • Think about the advantages of having
    multiskilled employees in your operation. Using
    the skill list from the Reality Practice, group
    different jobs in the kitchen which may have
    similar skill requirements. Develop a plan to
    cross-train your current employees in a
    systematic fashion until you have achieved your
    goal of a multiskilled team.
