1.1 JOB ENRICHMENT
Job enrichment is a job design approach for strengthening the motivational factors in a job. According to Dr. Supriya (2016), job enrichment also called job enhancement as it already become a fundamental tool in enhance worker motivation level, retaining talented staff, as well as improving organizational growth. The idea of job enrichment is come from the Frederick Herzberg’s two-factor theory of dimensions contribute to an employee’s behaviour at work.
1.2 JOB CHARACTERISTICS MODEL
The Job Characteristics Model (JCM) is an approach to job enrichment with interaction of core job dimensions and critical psychological states which established by J. Richard Hackman and Greg Oldham (1980). Based on the result of Job Diagnosis Survey (JDS), the organizational psychologists find out five core job dimensions: skill variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, and feedback.
1.3 MANEGERIAL APPLICATIONS
In an early Job Diagnostic Survey (JDS) which conducted by Hackman and Oldham to 658 employees, they find out five concepts that are useful for job enrichment:

The formula for this motivating potential score (MPS) is the following:
1.3.1. Skill Variety
Skill variety consider as the number of different types of skills and talents require to perform a job. When people keep using only one skill to perform same task repeatedly will created boredom and lead them to decrease in productivity
DECISION:
Our team has agreed on the 3rd decision which is to break down the production jobs into several job categories and do a job analysis for each category.
JUSTIFICATION:
Our current problem is that the employee's’ refusal to take on some duties is likely to result into a lower production rate, then a lower profit, lower wages, and, at the end, a higher turnover rate. To avoid/minimize these negative consequences, at our current financial state, we need a set of readily applicable job procedures and rules for a reasonable price.
Analysis of "Job Redesign for Expanded HIM Functions" By Elizabeth Layman
Working in the HIM field for over eight years now has been a great experience for myself. I began my HIM journey in the Long Term Care or the Nursing home world and have migrated to acute care and ambulatory. The HIM field has experienced constant change in the past 15 years. The biggest has been converting paper documentation into electronic systems.
According to the case study article, Layman explained that job structure around job enrichment was directly coordinated with job satisfaction and motivation. While implementing job enrichment, other compounds of job structures such as job enlargement and job rotation were also included as motivational factors. Although, in theory, these three motivational actions were intended to improve employee’s work environment moral, HIS Department may have discovered another type of challenges emerging from these practices. For instance, employees at HIS Department viewed “these actions as adding to their stress rather than reducing it” (Layman, 2011). The textbook, Principles of Management also point to this drawback by stating “there is some evidence that job enrichment may sometimes cause employees to be dissatisfied…employees given additional autonomy and responsibility may expect greater levels of pay” (Principles of Management, 2005).

INTRODUCTION
Some goals I have for this paper is for people to understand that people’s versions of things are not always going to be the what it is supposed to be and that people have opinions. Another goal is that people don’t judge this paper because it is not perfect, humans are not perfect. Lastly, my final goal for this paper is for it to be good enough for me to do more productive things.
SURVEY RESULTS
The basic survey results made a graph about what I am better at.
Like, when Jay and his band members Kel and Cia went to watch Indigo Daze perform by bunking their classes, Cia’s mother decided to ground Cia, but for Jay nothing was as important as winning the band competition, he made a deal with Cia’s mother that they will clean her garage and in exchange she will allow Cia to practice for the band. We have only one passion and if we have more, then we would not be able to focus and will not be able to be expert in anything. When we focus on more than one thing than our mind gets diverted and therefore we could never be satisfied by ourselves. But on the other hand if we practice more than one thing than surely we gain more experience. We could have one passion and many interests.

Four key good working practices that help protect the child and the adult working with them
are; working in an open and transparent way, listening to children and young people, propriety and
behaviour, and power and positions of trust.
Working in an open and transparent way is important as it means that a practitioner is not left totally
alone and out of view with a child. The layout and set-up of a room or building can contribute to this.
It is important to talk about different ways of working to ensure all staff are working in the most
appropriate way.

By constantly being active a person can accomplish many tasks and possibly goals. Being industrious and productive leads to performing well in life. Life has a time limit and therefore one should not waste it by being idle or unproductive.
Time is a constant, but personal productivity is not. One of Jefferson’s virtues describes being industrious in which he further explains that no time should be lost, a person should be well employed, and all unnecessary actions should be cut off.
Documentation (LO 4.1)
To begin with it is a good practice of any HR professional to conduct a Job Analysis, which is a method to collect information about the content of the job that is being offered.

After a through analysis the following three documents are prepared:

When a lot of people within the organization ask the same questions, it means that higher leadership did not do a good job in explaining the overall vision. The result of this leadership weakness can be lack of motivation from the employees and therefore the lack of productivity. If people do not have a sense of purpose in what they are doing, the results might be extremely
