Job enlargement
Job enlargement can be defined as the process of making a job more challenging and interesting by increasing the number of tasks the job holder needs to perform. “Job enlargement refers to adding a few more task elements horizontally” (Aswathappa 2005). Job enlargement is a horizontal expansion of the job. This means that the activities added are at the similar level as that of the current job position.
Job enrichment
The term job enrichment is a management concept which was first coined by psychologist Frederick Herzberg in his article One More Time: How Do You Motivate Employees?' published in the 1968 Harvard business review issue. Job enrichment involves making a job more challenging as well as interesting for the job incumbent to perform.
