Also known as: job ring exchange, job swap
Job rotation is a structured form of work organization used within the framework of career planning and human resources development. It refers to the systematic and temporary transfer of employees to different positions at a similar hierarchical level, where they take on full responsibility and independently perform the tasks associated with each role.
Implemented as a tool of HR development, job rotation allows employees to:
-
Broaden their knowledge and gain hands-on experience in various departments or functions
-
Enhance their skill sets and overall qualifications
-
Improve their adaptability and readiness for diverse roles within the organization
Through this approach, job rotation increases workforce flexibility and helps build a more resilient and agile organization.
