Task identity measures the degree to which a job requires the completion of an identifiable
piece of work. This would involve doing a job from beginning to end with a visible outcome.
Task identity is important for workers to find their work meaningful. Employees must feel
that the work they perform is their own, and must feel personally responsible for whatever
successes and failures occur as a result of the work. Jobs high in task identity provide a
sense of self-worth and satisfaction to employees.
