Q&A: Can your boss make you do things not on your job description?

Question by skipper: Can your boss make you do things not on your job description?
I was hired to to 1 job and now for over a year I have been doing my job plus another important job. I asked my boss for a title change and more money money and his response was” We can have you do anything we want”. I understand that sometimes you are needed to pick up the slack when others maybe out. But I have taken on the whole Kanban process for our plant. This is a very important function and I am the only at our plant that does it. It is not on my job description as I am listed as INJECTION MOLDING SR. If i say I dont want to do it anymore they will hold it against me. What good is a job description if they can make you do whatever they want. P.S. I work in California if that matters.

They can, and it sounds like they are giving you a choice: do it or look for another job,.
