    Job designing refers to specifying the duties, responsibilities, tasks, methods, and relationships required for a job. Properly designing medical officer jobs in government hospitals is important. Key responsibilities of medical officers include providing primary care services, patient follow-up, health education, and meeting safety targets. Their jobs could be improved through job enlargement, rotation, enrichment, and simplification to reduce workload, increase motivation, and improve performance and satisfaction. Addressing deficiencies in facilities, equipment, and compensation could help retain doctors and reduce incentives for private practice or moving abroad.

    Better Performance:
    It can easily remove the work overload, work under load, repetitiveness, limited
    control over work, shift work, delays in filling vacant positions, excessive working hours
    and limited understanding of the whole job process.

    1. Job enlargement: It can be used to increase motivation by giving


    doctors more and varied tasks and raising their basic pay. A doctor
    study for 18 long years and earns only Rs.17, 000 which is less
    than a police constable pay which are causing great depression in
    the doctors which ultimately results in going abroad and earning to
    the private practices and mal-practices. If these deficiencies are
    removed then doctors would be motivated. Earning according to the
    job hrs.

    2. Job rotation: It allows the doctors to work in different departments


    or jobs in an organization to gain better insight into operations.
    This, in itself, does not modify or redesigns the doctor’s job, but
    allows the opportunity to increase his/her skills and knowledge
    about other jobs. • They should be on regular jobs instead of
    contract bases

    3. Job enrichment: It allows the doctor to take on some


    responsibilities normally delegated to management. The risk here is
    that the doctors would be transferred too much responsibility and
    autonomy in the planning and control aspects of the job. Done right,
    however, the newfound control would invigorate the employee to
    work more effectively. Performance appraisal should be conducted. Incentive
    plans should be developed
    4. Work simplification: It is the analysis of a job's most basic
    components to restructure or redesign them to make the job more
    efficient. The load on duty should be reduced.

    Conclusion:
    Job design serves to improve performance and motivation.We
    started by looking at a job with a broad perspective and swiftly
    moves toward identifying the specific activities required to do the
    job. This is done for the purpose of identifying and correcting any
    deficiencies that affect performance. If our Govt. thinks about the
    doctors serving to the nation should be better look after, then they
    would provide them with facilities which would make them more
    satisfied and motivated.
