This may include, but is not limited to, individual position descriptions, information submitted by the Appointing Authority and employee, job audit reports, organizational charts, and lists of accountabilities to be used in appraising performance in the position.
    (c)   Consideration shall be given to the specific tasks and duties, levels of authority and responsibility, supervision received and exercised, discretion and judgment required, management of work processes and programs, organizational relationships to other positions, and any other factors which assist in the proper allocation of the position.
    (d)   Appointing Authorities may consider the relationship of positions to gain a better understanding of the duties and responsibilities of a position in assigning a position to a job family level.
