For employees, the primary value of implementing job enrichment is which of the following?

Job enrichment is a motivational strategy where employees are given more control, responsibility, and meaningful tasks in their roles. It aims to increase job satisfaction, personal growth, and motivation by making work more engaging and fulfilling.

Let’s analyze each option:

Option A: Validation of the achievement of their goals and objectives

Incorrect.

While job enrichment may contribute to achieving personal and professional goals, its primary purpose is not just validation but improving employee engagement and motivation.

Option B: Increased knowledge through the performance of additional tasks

Incorrect.

Job enlargement (not job enrichment) involves assigning additional tasks without necessarily increasing responsibility or autonomy.

Job enrichment focuses on providing meaningful and challenging work, not just adding tasks.

Option C: Support for personal growth and a meaningful work experience

Correct.

Job enrichment enhances job satisfaction by giving employees greater autonomy, responsibility, and purpose in their roles.

It encourages personal and professional development, leading to a more meaningful work experience.

Option D: An increased opportunity to manage better the work done by their subordinates

Incorrect.

Job enrichment does not necessarily focus on managing subordinates but rather on enhancing individual job roles by making them more fulfilling.

Thus, the verified answer is C. Support for personal growth and a meaningful work experience.
