In continuance to the concept of Job Specialisation, we saw that there are certain demerits of Job Specialisation like boredom. To overcome this problem there are various alternatives

• Job Rotation-It is a technique in which there is a systematic movement of employees from one job to another within the organization.
• Job Enlargement-It means increasing the scope of a job by extending the range of its job duties and responsibilities usually on the same level.
• Jon Enrichment-Job enrichment is a method of motivating employees where a job is designed to have interesting and challenging tasks which can require more skill and can increase pay.
• Work Teams-Work teams are groups of employees that work together on a task. 
• Job Characteristics Approach- It represents how particular job characteristics affect job outcomes, including job satisfaction. It includes improvement in the 5 core dimensions.

Afterwards, we discussed a small case that gave insights relating to the problems that arise while merging 2 companies. These may be duplication of activities, the difference in the level of technology, cultural differences, the difference in salaries and change in positions of the employees, decision making would also be hampered. This revealed the importance of organising in this case and how the same can be used to overcome the above-mentioned problems.
