Responsibility Question: Download Responsibility PDF

There is little difference between job responsibilities and job duties. Duties are basically the tasks that the employer assigns (sweeping, mopping). Responsibilities are things that we know we need to do (show up on time for work, wear appropriate clothing). On the other hand, duties are things we must do daily, cooking, cleaning, and making our beds. Responsibilities are meant to help designate or bind us to our actions. The good news is that although responsibilities can be seen as a hindrance, by following them, individuals become respected.
