This enables a worker to have a complete idea about the job procedure and the set criteria for job evaluation. 2- Autonomy is the level of freedom permitted to the employee at his or her job. It counts whether an employee is allowed to make changes in the schedule of work and its method or he/she is required to take permission from the higher staff for it. 3- Skills Variety refers to the variety of talents and skills required at the job.

Does the job make substantial impact over the organization or society or it is just an ordinary one. 5- Job Feedback refers to the organizational procedure of letting employees informed about their performance at job regularly.
