Abstract

Work design is a strategic instrument of HR that balances operational efficiency with employee well-being. This qualitative research through a literature study analyzes the crucial role of position analysis as a foundation for job design in forming positive work behavior and suppressing deviant work behavior (DWB). The results of the study show that position analysis is the main foundation in compiling a work design that provides clear division of tasks, strengthens motivation, and increases work commitment. This effectiveness is optimized through the integration of four aspects: proportional standardization, work autonomy, social support, and constructive managerial feedback. The combination of these elements has been proven to be able to increase productivity while minimizing deviant work behavior. This research formulates a job design model based on adaptive and sustainable position analysis. The novelty of the research lies in the position of position analysis as a strategic foundation that unites the dimensions of operational efficiency with behavioral aspects. These findings contribute to the development of the MSDM theory as well as become a practical reference for organizations in creating an effective, adaptive, and employee well-being oriented work system.
