Job Redesign for the Retail Sector
Implement job redesign to create quality and meaningful careers in the Retail Sector
The Job Redesign Framework for Retail guides retailers in implementing Job Redesign to review their employees’ job scopes in order to improve productivity and efficiency, optimise workforce and improve job attraction and retention. It will also assist retailers in equipping employees with the right skills to deliver an optimal retail experience to meet evolving customer needs amidst the highly competitive retail landscape.
