Depend upon the position specially those workers in hardship area rotation is very important, such leave is for health’s, relaxation and rejoining family  ,its good motivation for the employees.

Its one of the old ways everyone uses to make the tasks not so routine and little bit interesting. In my opinion, much more revolutionary ways of motivation needs to be employed in ways that are different to the old. Possibly being creative about motivational strategies might make their use much more feasible and relevant to the new age knowledgeable employees.

Am afraid, the answer is No.  Job  rotation helps an employee to enhance his existing skills and build new skills, that will be of importance for future assignments / career move.   So the key here is learning, which I believe would keep an employee motivated.

My opinion is divided about this matter.

 

By one way, yes, I think can be a motivation technique that allows the workers be involved in other new tasks (that they are trained or specialized too)

 

In other way, is somehow bad because with too much workers rotation you can never have in all process someone specific that can be responsible for any mistake that can appear.

Yes. Agree with your statement as it may demotivate the sincere talented person. Thanks

For instance, rotation schedules are implemented because there’s a twenty four hours continuing company operation… in this situation, employees must be in rotational shifts as they need some personal schedules to meet at a specific time… like going to bank, going for shopping and a lot more personal and official works. I mean you cant do something at night right?

 

If there will be no rotation, employees will face a problem. I agree you will be motivated if your shift engineer or shift leader would rotate your schedule once in a while in a month at least.

I think it is not a bad technique as rotation helps in learning new skills and techniques and as a professional who wants to grow it keeps us motivated and helps in having a diversified profile.

Sure No. rotation in jobs / tasks, helps the employee to see the complete picture, develop himself and enhance his experience and skills. It's a way to keep the employee enthusiastic and not to turn the curve of work to a routine one. So i support that technique because it's very healthy to the work environment...
