The Industrial Labor Relations Department of the Ministry of Human Development is tasked with conducting annual factory safety inspections. After the inspection of Zusak Electricals’s factories last year, the department reported considerably more violations of the Ministry’s regulations, compared to the previous year. This finding explains why Zusak Electricals’s workers suffered more injuries last year, compared to the year before.

A. The Industrial Labor Relations Department increased the purview and thoroughness of the inspections last year, compared to other years.
B. Zusak Electricals’s manufacturing processes are no more dangerous than are those of most other electrical companies.
C. Some safety experts in other countries consider certain Ministry regulations too slack and easy to circumvent.

E. In both years, the safety report on Zusak Electricals included no violations that occurred in factories that the company had leased out.

The industrial labour relations department (ILR department) under the Ministry of Human Development (MoHD), is tasked with the work of conducting annual factory safety inspections.
The inspection of Zusak Electricals’s factories reported more violations last year compared to the violations occured the previous year. Moreover, the number of injuries in the previous year is less compared to the injuries that occured in the last year.
we need to find a weakening option.
A. The Industrial Labor Relations Department increased the purview and thoroughness of the inspections last year, compared to other years.
This is the correct answer. As the purview and thoroughness of the inspection compared to other years is increased the last year. Due to which, the number of violations reported in the last year has increased hugely, so is the number of injuries. If the inspection is stringent, the number of violations increased, but that doesn’t mean the injuries have increased. Hence, correct answer.
B. Zusak Electricals’s manufacturing processes are no more dangerous than are those of most other electrical companies.
This is a irrelevant comparison, as the nature of the industry is not the cause for violations and injuries. This, doesn’t address the increasing violation and corresponding increase in injuries. Hence, wrong.
C. Some safety experts in other countries consider certain Ministry regulations too slack and easy to circumvent.
If that’s the case, then the number of violations reported should be reduced, and not the other way round. Moreover, the issue is pertaining to Zusak electrical, not about another country or a company in that country. Hence, Wrong.
D. Before last year, Zusak Electricals’s factories had an excellent safety record with very few injuries.
If that is the case, then the increasing violations have lead to more injuries. This option is actually a strenghtener. Hence, Wrong.
E. In both years, the safety report on Zusak Electricals included no violations that occurred in factories that the company had leased out.
If the violations and injuries reported are pertaining to Zusak Electricals, then the conclusion is actually strengthened. Hence, Wrong answer.
