Abstract: | Explores a particular aspect of work-job design-and emphasizes the range of alternatives available. Job enlargement and modified work weeks are briefly examined. It is suggested that the orientation of the problem solver and the issue of problem formulation are vital, but usually neglected aspects of job design. Some approaches to job design which capitalize on the existence of individual differences in the work force are considered. (32 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
