Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

There are three steps to apply the job characteristics model. The first is to diagnose the work environment to see if a problem exists. A self-report instrument for managers to use called the job diagnostic survey will indicate whether an individual's so-called motivating potential score (MPS), or the amount of internal work motivation associated with a specific job, is high or low. The second step is determining whether job redesign is appropriate, and the third step is considering how to redesign the job.
