Strategic choices With regarding to job analysis an
organization is required to make at least five choices:
The extent of employee involvement in job analysis
The level of details of job analysis Timing and frequency of analysis Past oriented vs. future oriented Source of job data
![Page 7: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
1. Employee involvement To what extent employees need to
be involved 2. Level of details The nature of the job being analysis
determines the level of detail in job analysis The level of detail require in job
analysis also depends upon the purpose for which job-related details are being collected.
![Page 8: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
3. When and how often Job analysis generally conducted when A. An organization is newly
established and the job analysis is initiated for the first time.
B. A new job is created in an established company.
C. A job is changed significantly due to change in technology, methods, procedure or system.
D. The organization is contemplating a new remuneration plan.
E. The employees of managers feel that there exist certain inequities between job demands and remuneration it carries.

4. Past-oriented vs. Future-oriented Traditional job analysis information
describes how the job has been done in the past and the manner in which it is being currently done.
Future-oriented can given to the job analysis and predictions may be made as to how the job will be done in future and way that should be done.

Information gathering
This step involves decision on three issues: What type of data is to be collected? What methods are to be employed for data
collection? Who should collect the data?
![Page 12: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Type of data -work activities -machine, tools, equipment and work aids
used -job context -personal requirementMethods for data collection -observation -interview -questionnaires -check lists -technical conference -diary methodWho should collect -trained job analyst -supervisors -job incumbents (job holder)
![Page 13: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Information processing Once the job information has been collected,
it is need to be processed, so that it would be useful in various personnel functions.
The process of job analysis result in two type of data-
1. Job description 2. Job specification
![Page 14: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Job description A job description is an organized factual
statement of job content in the form of duties and responsibilities of a specific job.
Job title LocationJob summaryDutiesMachine, tools and equipmentsMaterials and forms usedSupervision given or receivedWorking condition and hazards
![Page 16: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Job specification A job specification is a document which states
the minimum acceptable human qualities necessary to be perform a job properly.

6 Steps in job Analysis
![Page 18: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Step 1 Identify how you’ll use the informationThis will determine the types of data you collect and how
you collect them. Some data collection techniques like
• interviewing the employee • asking what the job entails • what his responsibilities• Critical incidents (CIT)• Personal observation• Questionnaire method

Step 2 Review relevant background information such as organization charts
(Shows• how the job in question relates to other jobs • where it fits in the overall organization• title of each position • who reports to whom through its interconnecting lines• with whom the job holder is expected to communicate.)
process charts(Shows the flow of inputs and outputs form the job)

Step 3 Select representative positions to be analyzed
This is done when
• many similar jobs are to be analyzed
• it is too time-consuming to analyze
Eg: a sample of 10 jobs instead of jobs of 200 assembly workers.

Step 4 Actually analyze the job
by collecting data on job activities required
• employee behaviors• working conditions• human traits and abilities needed to
perform the job. For this use one or more of the job analysis
techniques

Step 5 Review the information with worker
The job analysis information should be verified with
• the worker performing the job
• and with his or her immediate supervisor.
This will help
• to confirm that the information is factually correct and complete.
• gain the employee's acceptance of the job analysis data and conclusions by giving that person a chance to review and modify your description of his or her job activities.

Step 6 Develop a job description and job specification
job description is a, written statement that describes the activities and responsibilities of the job, as well as important features of the job such as working conditions and safety hazards.
job specification summarizes the personal qualities, skills, and background required for getting the job done; it may be either a separate document or on the same document as the job description.

Human Resource PlanningHRP determines as to how many and what
type of personnel will be needed in the near future. Thus job related information is necessary for HRP
![Page 26: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Recruitment and Selection Recruitment needs to be preceded by job
analysis. An understanding of the types of the skills needed and types of job that may open in the future, enables managers to have a better continuity and planning in staffing their organization.
Selecting a qualified person to fill a job requires knowing clearly the work to be done and the qualifications needed for someone to perform the work satisfactorily.
![Page 27: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Training & Development Training and development programmes can
be designed depending on the job requirements. Selection of trainees is also facilitated by job analysis.
![Page 28: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Job Evaluation Job evaluation involves determination of
relative worth of each job for the purpose of establishing wage and salary differentials. Relative worth is determined mainly on the basis of job description and job specification.
![Page 29: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Remuneration Remuneration must be based on relative
worth of each job. Basic principle results in inequitable compensation. A perception of inequity is a sure way of demotivating an employee.
![Page 30: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Performance Appraisal Job analysis facilitates performance appraisal
in as much as it helps fix standards for performance in relation to which actual performance of an employee is compared and assessed.
![Page 31: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Performance Information Organizations generally maintained
computerized personnel information systems. Such information system is useful as it helps:
1.Improve administrative efficiency by speeding up the provision of data.
2.Provide decision support-information which gives a factual basis for decisions concerning the planning, acquisition, development and remuneration of human resources.
![Page 32: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Safety & Health The process of conducting a detailed job
analysis provides an excellent opportunity to uncover and identify conditions and unhealthy environmental factors such as heat, noise, fumes, and dust.
![Page 33: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
METHODS OF COLLECTING JOB DATA
![Page 34: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Observation The job analyst carefully observes the job
holder at work and records what he or she does and how much time is needed for completion of a given task.
Advantages:-1.It is simple.2.Data collected are accurate .Disadvantages:-1.Time consuming.2.Inapplicable to job which involve high
proportion of unobservable mental activities.
![Page 35: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Interview The analyst interviews the job holder and his/her
supervisor to elicit information about the job.Structured interview form is used to record the
information.Advantages:-1.Talking to the job holders who are in a good position
to describe what they do, and perform their duties in a competent manner.
Disadvantages:-1.Time consuming.2.Bias on the part of the analyst and the job holders.
![Page 36: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Questionnaire Job holders filling in the given structured questionnaire,
which are then approved by their supervisors. Questionnaire should contains the following information.
1.The job title of the job holder.2.The job title of the job holders manager or supervisor.3.The job titles and numbers of the staff reporting to the
job holder.4.A brief description of the overall role or purpose of the
job.5.A list of the main tasks or duties that the job holder
has to carry out
![Page 37: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Advantages:-1.Large number of jobs can be collected in a
relatively short period of time.2.It saves timeDisadvantages:-1.Job analysis work requires specialized
knowledge and training. The average employee cannot express the information in a meaningful and clear fashion.
2.Questionnaires as the source of the job information is bound to create some errors in the programme.
![Page 38: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Checklists A checklist is similar to a questionnaire, but
the response sheet contains fewer subjective judgments and tends to be either yes/no variety.
It covers 100 activities and job holders tick only those tasks that are included in their job.
The list must collect all relevant information about the job concerned.
![Page 39: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Advantages:-1.It is used in large firms that have a large
number of people assigned to one particular job.
2.This technique is amenable to tabulation and recording on electronic data-processing equipment.
Disadvantages:-1.It is costly and, hence, not suitable for
small firms.
![Page 40: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Technical Conference Method Services of supervisors to possess extensive
knowledge about a job are used. Here, a conference of supervisors is used.
This method lacks accuracy because the actual job holders are not involved in collecting information.
![Page 41: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Diary Method This method requires the job holders to
record in detail their activities each day.Advantages:-1.It is accurate and eliminate errors caused
by memory lapses the job holder makes while answering questionnaires.
Disadvantages:-1.Time consuming.
![Page 42: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Quantitative Techniques There are occasions where the narrative
approaches are not appropriate. e.g.:- where it is desired to assign a quantitative value to each job so that jobs can be compared for pay purposes, a more quantitative approach will be appropriate.
There are three popular quantitative techniquesPosition analysis questionnaireManagement position description questionnaireFunctional job analysis
![Page 43: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Job Design Definition: The process of linking specific
tasks to specific jobs and deciding what techniques, equipment, and procedures should be used to perform those tasks.Involves determiningWhat is to be done (i.e., responses)How it is to be done (i.e., tools etc.)Why it is to be done (i.e., purpose)
![Page 44: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
The logical sequence of job analysis is job design.
It refers to the way the tasks are combined to form a complete job.
Job design is a process which integrates work content (tasks, functions, relationships), the reward (extrinsic & intrinsic) and the qualifications required (skills, knowledge, abilities) for each job in a way that meet the needs of employees and the organization.
![Page 45: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Cont… Job design is the division of the total task to
be performed into the manageable and efficient units-positions, departments and divisions and to provide for their proper integration.
Job design involves conscious effort to organize task, duties and responsibilities into a unit of work to achieve certain objectives.
Job design follows job analysis.
![Page 46: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Purpose of Job design
There are three objectives of job design:To meet the organizational requirements
such as higher productivity, operational efficiency, quality of service/products, etc.
To satisfy the needs of the individual employees like interest, challenge, achievement or accomplishment, etc.
To integrate the needs of the individual with the organizational requirements.
![Page 47: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
THE PROCESS OF JOB DESIGN Job design is a three step process:The specification of individual taskThe specification of the methods of
performing each taskThe combination of tasks into specific jobs to
be assigned to individuals

Job Specialization InvolvesBreaking jobs into small component parts Assigning specialists to do each partFirst noted by Adam Smith (1776)Found in manufacturing &
service industries
![Page 50: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

Self-Directed Teams Group of empowered individuals working
together for a common goalMay be organized for short-term or
long-term objectives
![Page 56: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Psychological Components of Job Design
Individuals have values, attitudes, and emotions that affect job results
Example: Work is a social experience that affects belonging needs
Effective worker behavior comes mostly from within the individual
Scientific management argued for external financial rewards
First examined in ‘Hawthorne studies’
![Page 57: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)

FACTORS AFFECTING JOB DESIGN Job design is affected by organizational,
environmental and behavioral factorsA properly designed job will make it
productive and satisfactory
![Page 60: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
ORGANISATIONAL FACTORS Organisational factors includeCharacteristics of tasksWork flowErgonomics/human engineeringWork practices
![Page 61: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Characteristics of tasks An individual may carry out one main task
which consist of a number of interrelated elements of functions
Task functions may be split between a team working closely together or strung along a assembly line. In more complex jobs, individuals may carry out a variety of connected tasks each with a number of functions or these task may be allocated to a group of workers or divided between them
![Page 62: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
The internal structure of each task consist of three elements: PlanningExecutingControllingAn ideal job design is to integrate all the
three elements
![Page 63: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Work flow The flow of work in a firm is strongly
influenced by the nature of product or service. The product or service suggests the sequence and balance between jobs.
Eg. The frame of a car must be build before the fenders and the doors can be added later
![Page 64: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Ergonomics Study of work It is concerned with designing and shaping
jobs to fit the physical abilities & characteristics of individuals so that they can perform their jobs effectively.

WORK PRACTICES Work practices are set ways of performing
work.These methods may arise from tradition or
the collective wishes of employees

ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS The external factors that have a bearing on job
design are Employee ability and availability Social and cultural expectations

TRADITIONAL APPROACH Under this approach a company can allocate
duties and responsibilities consistent with the common practices and traditions

Advantages It considerably simplifies recruitment,
selection and determination of compensationIt is consistent with the employees’
expectations and formal training and education programs as well
It is easier to implement

HUMAN RELATIONS APPROACH From the Hawthorne studies (1924-33),
investigators discovered that the greatest impact on productivity was of the social interaction patterns of workers rather than environmental conditions like lightning

Hawthorne Studies Conducted in late 1920’sWestern Electric Hawthorne plantShowed importance of the individual in the
workplaceShowed the presence of a social system in
the workplace

Hawthorne Studies: Workplace Lighting
Originally intended to examine effects of lighting on productivity
Scientific management proposed that physical conditions affect productivity
Result: Productivity increased regardless of lighting level
Conclusion: Increased productivity was due to workers’ receiving attention
![Page 75: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Hawthorne Studies: Piecework Pay Examined effects of group piecework pay
system on productivityWorkers under piecework system should
produce as much as possibleScientific management assumes that people
are motivated only by moneyResult: Increased ProductionConclusion: Social pressure caused workers to
produce at group-norm level

SOCIO-TECHNICAL SYSTEMS APPROACH It focuses on organizations has being made
up of people with various competencies (social systems) who use tools, machines and techniques (technical systems) to create goods and services valued by customers and stakeholders
It is complex and influence the way work is performed throughout the organizations
![Page 77: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
JOB DESIGN APPROACHES Five popular approaches to job design are: Job rotation, Job engineering, Job enlargement, Job enrichment and Socio technical system
![Page 78: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
JOB ROTATION Job rotation involves moving employees from
job to job to add variety and reduce boredom by allowing them to perform a variety of task
Employees with a wider range of skills give the management more flexibility in scheduling work, adapting to changes and filling vacancies
![Page 79: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Draw backs are CostlyTime consumingIt can demotivate intelligent and ambitious
trainees who seek specific responsibilities in their chosen speciality
![Page 80: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
JOB ENGINEERING It focuses on the task to be performed,
methods to be used, work flows among employees, layout of the work place, performance standards, and interdependencies among people and machines
Experts examine these job design factors by means of time and motion studies
![Page 81: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Specification of labor is the hallmark of job engineering. High level of specification is intended to:
Allow employees to learn a task rapidlyPermit short work cycles so that performance
can be almost automatic and involve little or mental effort
Make hiring easierReduce the need of supervision
![Page 82: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
JOB ENLARGEMENT Increasing the number of tasks a worker
performs but keeping all of the tasks at the same level of difficulty and responsibility; also called horizontal job loading.
Advantage: Adds variety to a worker’s job.Disadvantage: Jobs may still be simple and
limited in how much control and variety workers have.
![Page 83: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
JOB ENRICHMENT It involves adding more motivators to a job to make it more
rewarding. Job becomes enriched when it gives job holder more decision making, planning and controlling powers
According to Herzberg an enriched job has eight characteristics
Direct feed backClient relationshipNew learningScheduling on workUnique experienceControl over resourcesDirect communication authoritiesPersonal accountabilities
![Page 84: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
Cont… Increasing a worker’s responsibility and control over
his or her work; also called vertical job loading.Ways of enriching jobs:Allow workers to plan their own work schedules.Allow workers to decide how the work should be
performed.Allow workers to check their own work.Allow workers to learn new skills.Advantage: Gives workers more autonomy, responsibility,
and control.DisadvantagesNot all workers want enriched jobsMay be expensive and/or inefficient

Limitations to Job Enlargement/Job Enrichment Higher capital costMany individuals prefer simple jobsHigher wages are required since the worker
must utilize a higher level of skillA smaller labor pool exists of persons able
and willing to perform enriched or enlarged jobs
Increased accident rates may occur

More recent approaches:The Job Characteristics Model An approach to job design that aims to
identify characteristics that make jobs intrinsically motivating and to specify the consequences of those characteristics.Four key components
Core job dimensionsMotivating potential scoreCritical psychological statesConsequences: work and personal outcomesIndividual differences
![Page 87: Job Analyssis](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103014/546d0439b4af9f58658b45f7/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)

Critical Psychological States Experienced meaningfulness of the workExperienced meaningfulness of the work: The
degree to which workers feel their jobs are important, worthwhile, and meaningful.
Skill variety, task identity, and task significanceExperienced responsibility for work outcomesExperienced responsibility for work outcomes: The
extent to which workers feel personally responsible or accountable for their job performance.
AutonomyKnowledge of resultsKnowledge of results: The degree to which workers
know how well they perform their jobs on a continuous basis.

The Social Information Processing Model An approach to job design based on the idea that
information from other people and workers’ own past behaviors influence workers’ perceptions of and responses to the design of their jobs.
The social environment (i.e., the other individuals with whom workers come in contact) provides information about which aspects of their jobs workers should pay attention to and which they should ignore.
The social environment also provides workers with information about how they should evaluate their jobs and work outcomes.

Conclusion Analyzing Work and Designing Jobs affects
the productivity, motivation, and satisfaction level of employees. Hence, care must be exercised in designing jobs which ultimately result in the fulfillment of individual goals & organizational objectives.
