Question

A large retail organization previously divided work among its four employee benefits staff into distinct specializations. One person answered all questions about superannuation (pension plans), another answered all questions about various forms of paid time off (e.g. vacations), and so on. These jobs were recently restructured so that each employee benefits person answers all questions for people in a particular geographic area. For example, one staff member is responsible for all employee benefits inquiries from anyone in a particular geographic region.

Answer 1

Answer:

This job restructuring is an example of job enrichment.

Explanation:

Job enrichment is a motivational tool used by organizations to give employees greater satisfaction in their jobs, by giving them additional responsibilities previously reserved for higher-ranking positions.
