Job enrichment is defined as making jobs more challenging and interesting by expanding the range of skills required. Which option best describes this?

• A. Reducing responsibilities
• B. Paying higher wages
• C. Making jobs more challenging and interesting
• D. Limiting tasks

Answer: (C)

Job enrichment involves redesigning work to be more varied and meaningful by expanding the range of skills used and increasing responsibility. The choice that describes this best is making jobs more challenging and interesting, because it directly captures the idea of adding depth and autonomy to a job rather than just adding tasks, paying more, or reducing duties. Reducing responsibilities or limiting tasks would lessen challenge, and paying higher wages relates to pay rather than how the job itself is designed.
