As a staff, should you do beyond your job description even if you are capable?

[Fidelia]

For some people that are working as employees, there might be a situation where there is a gap in your workplace. And you are able to fill that gap even though it is outside your job description. You would not be paid for extra for filling that gap.

Would you fill such gaps for your organisation?

I don't think this is something someone would tell you though, it's more of a choice. If you can do beyond your job description, and you believe it's wort it, then go ahead.

If there's a gap and you can fill it why not but if it is to do eyes service then you would just be killing yourself

 

[King Belieal]

If the business owner is one that appreciates you filling the gap, it is fine. If the business owner is not an appreciative person, I stick to what I was hired to do.

Yes as a staff in my work place I usually do my job beyond the teaching I was paid for cause I want the growth of the school.

 

[Springtime]

When I was working full time, I always tried my very best and do beyond the job description. My supervisor appreciated that and I also felt good.

 

[Kera]

I don't have time to offer free services to any employer. I don't do beyond my work description unless I am being paid.

 

[Augusta]

This is like a personal decision. I don't promise anything if I can help in any capacity I would help

 

[Fidelia]

Maybe if it is a business that has to do with social services, I would do beyond my job description as my contribution to society.

 

[Kross]

If I am working with an organization that is in the industry of my passion, I might do beyond my job description.

 

[Augusta]

Yes because this is a personal decision. You just have to do it as you can and what you feel good doing

For me l can say that that really depends on the person and the context. For instance one would do beyond the capabilities when trying to gain trust and hearts of the bosses for their personal gains.
