Abstract

Job enlargement and enrichment make the work more innovative, challenging, and rewarding for employees because these techniques allow them to do a range of activities and additional tasks, which help them acquire new knowledge and skills, resulting in increased motivation and performance. This study sought to find the effect of job enrichment and job enlargement on teachers’ motivation and performance at the university level and the mediating effect of motivation in the relationship between independent and dependent variables. Data were collected from 150 teachers of different departments of the University of Sargodha and the University of Education. A five-point Likert-type questionnaire was adapted to measure variables. The Cronbach alpha reliability coefficient was measured to ascertain the reliability of the questionnaire. The data were analyzed through regression analysis and process Macro using SPSS. The results of regression analysis established the effect of job enrichment and job enlargement on teachers’ motivation and performance. The findings also made it clear that motivation partially mediated the relationship between job enrichment and teachers’ performance, and the same was true for job enlargement. The study recommends that heads of departments should create variety in job design to involve teachers in their work to make the job more rewarding.
