Job Evaluation (JE) is a key part of the Agenda for Change pay system that covers over one million NHS staff. JE enables jobs to be matched to national job profiles, or allow trusts to evaluate jobs locally, to determine in which Agenda for Change pay band a post should sit. The NHS Job Evaluation Handbook is the comprehensive guide for NHS organisations on the job evaluation scheme.
