Job Rotation: Rare in Firms of All Sizes
Job rotation and cross-training can benefit both employees and employers. Workers learn new skills and face less boredom from performing similar tasks over and over. Greater variety and a wide range of tasks make work more interesting and challenging.
Job rotation and cross-training can also benefit employers. Job rotation is believed to boost innovation by enabling workers to apply knowledge of one task to others. Moreover, exposing employees to other types of jobs within the firm promotes a better understanding of what others in the firm do and how each job contributes to the whole. Finally, a multi-skilled workforce can more readily adapt to changing markets.
As the above chart shows, relatively few employed Canadians engage in job rotation or cross-training. While 15 percent say they "occasionally" participate in such workplace practices, only 6 percent report doing so on a "frequent" basis.
This form of flexible work organization is slightly more common among workers in large firms. For instance, those employed in firms of under 20 employees are least likely to be engaged in job rotation or cross-training, with 84 percent of them indicating that they never do so, compared with 80 percent of workers in firms with 500 or more employees.
