INFLUENCE OF JOB DESIGN ON EMPLPLOYEE EFFECTIVENESS

Along with the creation of human resource management there is a spike in interest to modernize job design approaches. Job design influences the actions and experiences of employees at any job. It is shaped by internal and external influences. The formula for success lies in the balance between jobs and assignments for the firm. The significance of adequately designed jobs is varied, as it benefits performance, employee satisfaction and their psycho-physical state. On the other hand, all of that implies profit for the firm. In this paper, we are concerned with defining a job, and the nature of its design. Next, we analyze job processes, a complex, multi-stage analysis. The possibilities for job analysis are twofold and are realized through the job assignment approach and the competency based approach. Insisting on competencies is a better approach than the one which is based on work tasks, which in turn are considered more traditional. The advantage of this approach is precisely what gives the character of human potential to use the maximum capacity (knowledge, skills, or other personal characteristics) and thus to make a full contribution in the organizational performance. Last, but not least important, are job description and specification, which are shown. The aim of the paper is to show how important it is to understand and adequately value job design, so it can be successfully implemented. This increases motivation and effectiveness of employees, and finally to the rise of a corporation's profit. Therefore, job design is significant in many ways.
