Job DesignJob DesignJob Design: the process of defining how
work will be performed and what tasks will be required in a given job.
Job Redesign: a similar process that involves changing an existing job design.
To design jobs effectively, a person must thoroughly understand:– the job itself (through job analysis) and– its place in the units work flow (work flow
analysis)

1. Skill variety – the extent to which a job requires a variety of skills to carry out the tasks involved.
2. Task identity – the degree to which a job requires completing a “whole” piece of work from beginning to end.
3. Task significance – the extent to which the job has an important impact on the lives of other people.

Job Enrichment Empowering workers by
adding more decision-making authority to jobs.
Based on Herzberg’s theory of motivation.
Individuals are motivated more by the intrinsic aspects of work.
Self-Managing Work Teams
Have authority for an entire work process or segment:– schedule work– hire team members– resolve team performance
problems– perform other duties
traditionally handled by management
Team members motivated by autonomy, skill variety, and task identity.

A work schedule that allows time for community and family interests can be extremely motivating.
Job Sharing A work option in which
two part-time employees carry out the tasks associated with a single job.
Enables an organization to attract or retain valued employees who want more time to attend school or take care of family matters.

work away from a centrally located office.Advantages to employers include:
– less need for office space– greater flexibility to employees with special
needsEasiest to implement for managerial,
professional, or sales jobs.Difficult to set up for manufacturing workers.

Designing Ergonomic JobsDesigning Ergonomic Jobs
Ergonomics – the study of the interface between individuals’ physiology and the characteristics of the physical work environment.
The goal is to minimize physical strain on the worker by structuring the physical work environment around the way the human body works.
Redesigning work to make it more worker- friendly can lead to increased efficiencies.

Ways to Simplify a Job’s Mental Ways to Simplify a Job’s Mental DemandsDemandsLimit the amount of information and
memorization that the job requires.Organizations can provide:
– adequate lighting– easy-to-read gauges and displays– simple-to-operate equipment– clear instructions

SummarySummary Work flow analysis identifies:
– the amount and quality of a work unit’s outputs– the work processes required to produce these outputs– the inputs used to carry out the processes and produce the
outputs Within an organization, units and individuals must
cooperate to create outputs, and the organization’s structure brings people together for this purpose.
Job analysis is the process of getting detailed information about jobs.
![Page 48: JOB ANALYSIS](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051621/568149ab550346895db6e967/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Summary Summary (continued)(continued)
Job analysis includes preparation of :– Job descriptions
– Job specifications Information for analyzing an existing job often
comes from incumbents and their supervisors. The U.S. Department of Labor provides information:
– Dictionary of Occupational Titles
– Occupational Information Network (O*NET)
![Page 49: JOB ANALYSIS](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051621/568149ab550346895db6e967/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Summary Summary (continued)(continued)
The nature of work and job design is changing.– Viewing organizations in terms of a field of work needing
to be done instead of specific job descriptions
– Organizations are adopting project-based structures and teamwork, which also require flexibility and the ability to handle broad responsibilities.
The basic technique for designing efficient jobs is industrial engineering.

Summary Summary (continued)(continued)
According to the Job Characteristics Model, jobs are more motivating if they have greater skill variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, and feedback.
Ways to create such jobs include:– Job Enlargement
– Job Rotation
– Job Enrichment
– Self-managing work teams offer greater skill variety and task identity
– Flexible work schedules and telework offer greater autonomy

Summary Summary (continued)(continued)
The goal of ergonomics is to minimize physical strain on the worker by structuring the physical work environment around the way the human body works.
Employers may seek to reduce the mental as well as physical strain.– The job design may limit the amount of information and
memorization involved.
– The goal is to reduce errors and accidents.
– Technology tools may actually cause more distractions, errors, and accidents.
