Download or read book Customized Job Enrichment and Its Effect on Job Performance written by Ira Feder and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 1999-07 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new type of highly customized job enrichment was studied for its impact on job performance, by comparing its impact on job performance to those resulting from classical job enrichment. The study was conducted on participants comprised of employees of a financial institution and a small section of a residential population. Participants (n=38) were Human Resources staff in the financial institution and of mixed professional occupations in the other group. The Job Diagnostic Survey was used to measure job enrichment, and performance ratings were used to measure job performance. Correlations between job enrichment and job performance were studied for those participants categorized in classically enriched jobs vs. those in jobs that had customized job enrichment. Certain limitations of this study did not allow for conclusive indications of job performance differences between the two groups. New concepts relating Growth Need Strength to job characteristics and increased job performance are also discussed. New categorizations of various types of Growth Need Strength are discussed as they relate to increased job performance.

Book excerpt: In today's competitive business landscape, organizations in the service sector strive to create a dynamic and motivated workforce that delivers exceptional customer experiences. To achieve this goal, the concept of job enrichment and its impact on employee motivation has gained significant attention. This study aims to delve into the practices of job enrichment within select service sector companies and assess their influence on employee motivation levels.

By elevating the complexity of tasks and offering greater decision-making authority, organizations aim to foster a sense of ownership and fulfillment among their employees. In this comprehensive exploration, various methodologies, including surveys, interviews, and case studies, will be utilized to gauge the effectiveness of job enrichment practices. The study will analyze how these initiatives influence employee motivation, job satisfaction, productivity, and overall performance. Moreover, potential factors that might hinder or facilitate the successful implementation of job enrichment programs will be examined. The findings of this research endeavor are anticipated to shed light on the correlation between job enrichment and employee motivation in the service sector. The insights gained from this study will provide valuable guidance to service-based organizations looking to enhance their work environments, retain top talent, and create a more engaged and driven workforce. Ultimately, the research aspires to contribute to the advancement of employee-oriented practices that fuel success in the service industry.
