View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

Introduce a biometric attendance system.

Why this answer is correct

Statement: Many employees have started arriving late to the office.

Judgement (1): Cut a day's salary for each late arrival. ⇒ This is a harsh action without first identifying the reason for the increased late arrivals. Such an extreme measure should not be the immediate response. Hence, this is not an appropriate judgement.

Judgement (2): Introduce a biometric attendance system. ⇒ This is a practical and reasonable administrative measure to monitor attendance accurately and discourage habitual late arrivals. Hence, this is an appropriate judgement.

Judgement (3): Ignore the issue. ⇒ Since many employees are arriving late, ignoring the issue may negatively affect discipline and productivity. Hence, this is not an appropriate judgement.

Judgement (4): Allow flexible timings. ⇒ The statement does not indicate that the late arrivals are due to genuine scheduling issues. Allowing flexible timings without any supporting information is not a justified judgement. Hence, this is not an appropriate judgement.

Hence, only Judgement (2) follows.

Hence, the correct answer is “Option 2”.
