Job house with job titles, 16 reference jobs and safety note for archaeologists completed

Feedback public consultation

On Monday, Aug. 19, the summer consultation was expanded to include two fair pay practice tools from the Archaeology chain table. The first proposal was for a job house containing 16 reference functions, provided with profiles, ratings and salary tables plus a synonym list. The second proposal was a memorandum on safety and working conditions. On the basis of thorough input during the consultations, Bureau Leeuwendaal, in collaboration with the chain table, now presents the definitive ‘Job Classification for Archaeology’ with ‘Profiles’ containing 16 reference functions. The relationship with project-based work has been clarified for Archaeologist 1. Different names are regularly used for the same jobs, which is why a ‘List of common job titles’ is also available. Furthermore, the memorandum ‘Safety and Working Conditions in Archaeology’ has been finalized. Given the input received, general VCA (Safety, Health, Environment) certification and certification is now recommended, among other things. The recommendation, however, is to develop a specific toolbox and handbook for workers in archaeology. At an earlier stage, the Chain Table presented three practical tools based in part on an employment monitor: Standard regulation on secondary employment conditions; zzp note; note on contracts.
