Position

A position is a framework defining the essence of the work – the total activity that a certain employee filling the position is required to perform, conditions, and wages.

The position is a derivative of a job and it is adapted to the context of the organizational unit with which it is associated. For example, the job of a secretary may have two positions: secretary of the CEO and secretary of the customer service department. These positions require different skills: the CEO’s secretary may be required to have command of additional languages at native speaker level.
The position is usually filled by a certain employee, although a position may be filled by two part-time employees who share the job.
