There are a wide variety of challenges that a business can face in its lifespan, and many of which will often be related to manpower or work process issues. These issues can cause persistent problems for your company in the long run if unaddressed!
Job Redesign is a viable solution that can solve multiple common issues at once, but how do you know when it is the option to consider?
Do you have or are trying to start a new work process but struggle to find the right person for the job? Hiring the best candidate can be a challenge, but so is hiring the wrong candidate, which can end up being a waste of time and money.
Perhaps the best candidate is under your nose all along!
By performing Job Redesign to rework your process and reskill your employee at the same time, you can effectively kill two birds with one stone, revitalising your business and gaining a ‘new’ employee both at once.
On the subject of employees, are you experiencing a high turnover rate?
Employees often leave their companies when they start to experience burnout or boredom, often as a result of poor work-life quality or a lack of a sense of belonging at the company.
This is usually caused by mundane and menial work processes, or duties that do not fit the employee’s talents or personality.
A thorough Job Redesign will help to raise morale, job satisfaction, and build a positive company image with long-term employees and a ready mindset for change.
Manual and outdated work processes can negatively affect more than just your employees, as it can result in a huge lack of productivity and efficiency, which in turn will impact your revenue poorly.
Several tasks and processes at most businesses can actually be redone in a much more efficient manner! For example, up to 73% of time spent in the Accommodation and Food Services industries are spent on workflows that can be automated.
In order to ensure the most efficient and effective Job Redesign (JR), it is most recommended to engage professional JR consultants, as they can best provide the necessary analysis and advice for your business.
There are pre-approved JR consultants to advise you under the Support for Job Redesign under Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG-JR). Developed by Workforce Singapore (WSG), PSG-JR aims to make redesigning jobs easier by providing enterprises with Job Redesign (JR) consultancy support to complement and drive business and workforce transformation.
We are collaborating with Singapore National Enterprise Federation (SNEF), the programme manager for PSG-JR, to bring the programme to benefit more enterprises.
With PSG-JR funding and advisory support, JR can become easy and affordable for any company to embark on. As of end-2023, over 250 companies have embarked on PSG-JR projects and over 85% of these companies are SMEs.
