Abstract
The theory of socio-technical
system has been considered as an
effective tool for designing and redesigning
jobs in organizations
since long. Striking a balance
between the technical and social
subsystems of a job remains the
major challenge till today. The
design of jobs at executive level
through socio-technical system
requires the appropriate analysis of
relevant technical and social
subsystem constructs / factors in
the organization. The present study
was conducted in various types of
Indian industrial organizations
(public and private sectors,
manufacturing and service sectors)
to make a comparative analysis
among them. The paper helps to
extract the extent to which the
technical and social subsystem
factors do exist in the executive
level jobs in line with the
framework of socio-technical
design of jobs.
