Core Competency Definitions

• Safety and Security: Employees with a competency of safety and security are able to observe safety and security procedures, report potentially unsafe conditions and use equipment and materials properly. At intermediate levels that can determine appropriate action beyond guidelines. At higher levels of competency, employees make proactive suggestions to improve safety and security within their department or across the organization.
• Quality of work: Employees with high quality of work demonstrate accuracy and thoroughness in their work product. They look for ways to improve and promote quality and can apply feedback to improve performance. A stronger employee will monitor their own work to ensure quality.
• Results-oriented: Employees who are results-oriented focus on achieving results for the organization or team. Most employees routinely achieve their goals and gradually move on to more challenging tasks. More results-oriented employees go beyond that baseline to deliver exceptional value in their daily work.
