What is Job Analysis and Job Design?

Job Analysis determines the required duties, responsibilities, skills, and knowledge. Job Design involves structuring jobs to enhance productivity and satisfaction by defining roles, responsibilities, and work processes. These processes ensure that each position is aligned with the organisation's goals and that employees are engaged in meaningful work.
