Paygrade task delegation

[wageslave23]

What is the business term for being efficient with task delegation so that you aren't having someone with a high paygrade doing something that someone with a lower paygrade is capable of doing?

Resource allocation?

In medicine, they refer to this as practicing at the top of one's license. So (in theory) the doctor shouldn't be doing things that a nurse could do, the nurse shouldn't be doing things that an admin worker could do.

Yeah I guess both of those terms fit.  I thought there would be a specific term since to me it is one the key ways to optimize.

In my experience it's "Shit rolls downhill" 😁

Hahaha. True, but I need to be able to explain it diplomatically.

It’s called companies saving $ on labor. Resource, human resource, or labor allocation are probably close terms. But when it comes to explaining it diplomatically, I think cost savings is the best way, especially if you’re explaining it to management.

If you’re paid 50/hr and an assistant is paid 15/hr, the company saves $18 for an assistant to spend 30 minutes making photo copies rather than you. You now get 30 extra minutes on x project, which will make the company more money, further increasing the company’s profits through smart labor allocation.

Ok how about resource allocation optimization?  :)

That's good!  I'll use that.  I think you just coined a new term!

If we're going full on business speak:

Value added outside the box synergistic optimization of resource allocation for vertical alignment of core competencies and incentivising of innovators guaranteed to move the needle for our wheelhouse.

Lol that was good.  After 20yrs of corporate life I still can't bullshit that well....makes writing yearly goals tough 😁
