Job change plans are either informal or formal. Under the informal plan, which is more common on account of its simplicity, decision as to who should be transferred, promoted or separated, usually vary from person to person and from time to time. Informal change plan is subject to whims and prejudices and no one knows what his status is likely to be in future. This produces a highly demoralising influence on all workers. A formal job change plan is, therefore, a must in all big organisations. A job change plan is a written document which includes the following elements.
(1) Extensive use of job descriptions for each job change.
(2) Drawing of charts and diagrams for depicting the interconnections between jobs, terminal points and avenues of upward and lateral mobility.
(3) Framing of elaborate rules to govern each type of change.
(4) Dissemination of knowledge about rules to all members of the organisation.
(5) Application of these rules.
