Job Crafting

Job crafting allows employees to customize their jobs by changing tasks and interactions. Fatima, who found her monitoring role repetitive, crafted her job by starting interactions with team members to provide guidance on new strategies. While job crafting can improve satisfaction, not all jobs are suitable as some require specific skills or experience and workload increases could impact performance. Potential drawbacks like heavier workload or lack of preparation need to be minimized through preparation, teamwork, and consultation.

reprioritization for the employee. Some employees may not be able to quickly
adjust to their new responsibilities.

enrichment. Those who cannot join may feel disconnected from the company

may not perform as efficient as prior to job enrichment. These employees
may actually work better in a non job-enriching environment.
