Ethan's job as an accounting assistant was recently modified to include reconciling bank accounts and making deposits, two tasks previously done by the accounting manager. This increase in responsibility would best be described as job
a. enlargement.
b. satisficing.
c. enrichment.
d. design.
e. development.

The correct option is C,job enrichment

Explanation:

Job enlargement refers adding additional tasks to an employee's job description and it is done for different reasons. The chief possible motive for job enlargement could be prepare the employee for a higher role.

Satisficing on the job involves ensuring one is able to attend to tasks one is saddled with in order to achieve a balance between different stakeholders' expectations instead of prioritizing one's stakeholder's need over another.

Job enrichment is a way of encouraging employees to give out their best output by assigning to them jobs previously reserved for more senior employees

Job design implies making decision on a job description by considering tasks that could be combined and performed by a single employee

Job development is about appraising an employee with a view to discovering his growth needs on the job and make adequate arrangement in terms of training to enable the employee to bridge the skills gap

The bone contention here is between options A and C,but C is preferred since the additional tasks are tasks previously meant for one's managers.
