Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

According to Frederick Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory, vertical job loading (job enrichment) involves removing certain controls while retaining accountability, increasing personal accountability for one's work, introducing new and more challenging tasks, and assigning specific or specialized tasks that enable employees to become experts. Assigning general, routine tasks represents horizontal job enlargement rather than vertical job enrichment.
