Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Vertical loading in job enrichment refers to giving employees more autonomy and control over their work, as well as increasing the level of challenge and responsibility. Therefore, the correct answer is C, autonomy, which increases with vertical loading. Management involvement (A) and technical interdependence (D) are not directly affected by job enrichment, and while costs (B) may increase in the short term, the long-term benefits of job enrichment typically outweigh the costs.
