IKEA: Job Analysis
IKEA is a well-known global brand of home furnishing products. IKEA specializes in
self-assembly furniture where customers are not just the builders but also often the means of
outbound logistics. Simply this means that the customers are responsible for deciding the
transportation needs of the products they buy (e.g. pickup). At IKEA, thousands of products are
handled daily and the movement of goods must be as efficient as possible, under all
circumstances, guaranteeing service to customers and ensuring that the products they seek are
available to buy at all times (Schwab, 2018). Logistics are important because delivering the right
products to the right customers at the right time and at the least possible cost is essential to
growth, thus maintaining uninterrupted sales. In a changing environment, logistics planning

relation source of supply.). A logistics operator, also called a logistician, commandeers the
movement of freight by land, sea, and air. Their logistics duties and responsibilities include
overseeing the supply chain from point-of-sale to delivery of a nicely wrapped package on a
customer’s doorstep. Virtually all industries rely on logisticians to move everything from raw
