What is the definition of a position in Infor Global HR?

In Infor Global HR, a position is defined as a specific instance of a job. This means that it refers to the actual, individual role that exists within the organizational structure, typically occupied by an employee. Each position is linked to a particular job description that outlines the duties and responsibilities associated with that role, making it distinct from other positions that may fall under the same job title.

This understanding of position is essential for various HR functions, such as recruitment, performance management, and organizational planning, as it ensures that each role is clearly defined and understood within the context of the organization. It establishes a basis for tracking job roles, aligning talent with appropriate positions, and ensuring that the HR systems accurately reflect the workforce structure.
