Which of the following structural sequences correctly illustrates the hierarchical building-block relationship of work elements in job design and work structure?

In work design and job analysis literature, work is structured hierarchically from the smallest distinct unit of physical or mental activity to the total enterprise: Task: A distinct, identifiable work activity composed of specific elements (e.g., typing a document or filling out a form). Duty: A collection of related tasks performed by an individual to achieve a specific work outcome (e.g., maintaining departmental records). Job: A group of positions or responsibilities that are identical or similar in their significant duties and tasks (e.g., Senior Accountant). Organization: The overarching structural entity comprising all aggregated jobs, departments, and strategic business units working toward a common objective.
