Describe the relationship between job-relatedness and job analysis, how do they inter-relate?


There must be a job analysis in order to confirm job-relatedness.


By conducting a job analysis, you are gathering and analyzing information to form job requirements.


The job analysis relates to job-relatedness because it sets the guidelines on what KSA's and competencies are needed for a particular job and is helpful in conducting interviews and selecting the right person for the job. This information can be of great help if legal issues present themselves. So, by having a good "JA"/"JR" in place, you are making sure that your company is meeting ADA requirements.
