Job enrichment is concerned with designing jobs that include greater variety of work content, require higher level of knowledge and skill; give workers more autonomy and responsibility; and provide the opportunity for personal growth and a meaningful work experience. If jobs are enriched and made interesting, the job itself becomes a source of motivation to the individual.
B. Job security- III. Concerned with certain stability about future income and work. Job security: Employees want their job to be secure. They want certain stability about future income and work so that they do not feel worried on these aspects and work with greater zeal. In India, this aspect is more important considering the inadequate job opportunities and too many aspirants for these. However, there is one negative aspect of job security. When people feel that they are not likely to lose their jobs, they may become complacent.
C. Employee Empowerment- I. Giving more autonomy and powers to subordinates. Employee Empowerment: Empowerment means giving more autonomy and powers to subordinates. Empowerment makes people feel that their jobs are important. This feeling contributes positively to the use of skills and talents in the job performance.
D. Employee participation- II. Involving employees in decision-making of the issues related to them. Employee participation: It means involving employees in decision-making of the issues related to them. In many companies, these programmes are in practice in the form of joint management committees, work committees, canteen committees etc., |
