Tiivistelmä: | Management's job design practices are examined. There is no evidence for a general tendency toward skill-upgrading. Differences in the skill and authority structure of production job associated with the introduction of programmable automation seem to be explainable by a number of factors: the form of the technology adopted,industrial relations systems,the experience of unexpected technical and logistical problems with the technology,and the pre-existing form of work organization. Three management approaches to design of jobs are presented. |
