Which practice helps reduce monotony by rotating workers through different tasks?

• A. Job rotation
• B. Job enlargement
• C. Job enrichment
• D. Appraisal

Answer: (A)

Rotating workers through different tasks is a job-design method that introduces variety in daily work. By moving employees between different duties, the work becomes less repetitive, which helps reduce boredom and monotony. It also helps staff learn a wider range of skills and become more flexible, making it easier to cover absences and adapt to changing needs. This approach is different from enlarging a job, which adds more tasks of the same level to the same role and can still feel repetitive; or enriching a job, which adds more responsibility and autonomy within the same tasks; or an appraisal, which is just a method of assessing performance.
