Correct Answer: Job enrichment


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Job enrichment

Job enrichment involves modifying or redesigning jobs to make them more challenging, meaningful, and satisfying for employees. It focuses on enhancing the content and nature of the job by increasing the level of responsibility, autonomy, and decision-making authority given to employees. Through job enrichment, employees are provided with opportunities to take on additional tasks or responsibilities that go beyond their regular job duties. This can include activities such as planning, problem-solving, decision-making, and innovation. By giving employees greater control and ownership over their work, job enrichment aims to enhance their motivation, job satisfaction, and overall engagement.
