The Role of Job Analysis in Improving Human Resource Management and Organizational Performance

Abstract

This literature review examines the role of job analysis in supporting human resource management in organizations. This study was conducted by reviewing journals, scientific articles, and research findings that discuss the relationship between job analysis, recruitment, selection, and employee performance development. The results of the review indicate that job analysis plays a significant role as a mediator between the match between individual competencies and job demands. Factors such as task clarity, job descriptions, position specifications, structured training programs, and career planning have been shown to improve employee motivation, performance, and productivity. Conversely, inappropriate placement and unclear tasks can reduce work effectiveness. The concept of human resource management, which emphasizes competency-job fit, is the most relevant theoretical framework in explaining this relationship. Overall, these findings emphasize the importance of consistently and systematically implementing job analysis to create a conducive work environment and increase organizational effectiveness and sustainability.
