ABSTRACT
In the dynamic landscape of contemporary workplaces, the role of job design in shaping workers' productivity has garnered considerable attention. This study delves into the intricate relationship between job design elements and their impact on employee productivity, drawing insights from a survey of 75 staff members from the Bursary Department of University of Benin. The primary objective is to discern how specific aspects of job design, including task variety, autonomy, skill utilization, and feedback mechanisms, influence the productivity levels of workers. Through the distribution of a structured questionnaire, this research collected quantitative data on various dimensions of job design and their perceived effects on productivity. The responses were subjected to rigorous statistical analysis, employing correlation and regression techniques to establish meaningful patterns and associations. The findings of the study reveal a nuanced relationship between job design and workers' productivity. Task variety emerged as a significant factor positively impacting productivity, with employees reporting higher engagement and motivation when exposed to diverse tasks. Autonomy, characterized by the degree of decision-making authority given to employees, was found to have a positive association with productivity, particularly when coupled with clear guidelines and objectives.
