In a working environment employees are majorly involved in their day to day activities. They usually are definite on what duties they are to perform. They are categorized as either essential or non essential functions. Essential functions usually involve those integral parts of a given job. They are necessary and are involved in day to day duties, Williamson (1993) it is necessary since those involved are highly trained and equipped with knowledge in performing the set duties. The functions are mainly the major reasons the organization and the job description exist in the fast place so they are usually handled with care and only experts are involved in the duties. The other function involves the non essential functions, as the name suggests they are additional duties laid form a major function being presented. They are either caused by some occurrences or used as additional duties to be carried out workers. They done require specialist to perform them so in major organizations they are usually distributed among amongst all employees.
