Production manager: Our warehouses have a total of 5,000 employees working to ensure daily on-time package
delivery based out of 200 facilities nationwide. Of these 5,000 employees, approximately 5 percent are absent on
any given workday. Even with these regular absences, our on-time delivery rates are better than ever. Therefore,
we should be able to lower staffing by 250 employees and experience no decrease in service.
Q.) The production manager's argument is most vulnerable to criticism on which of these grounds?
A. He confuses the definitions of absent and unemployed.
B. He fails to justify an assumed change in absenteeism.
C. He takes for granted that every employee's level of service is identical.
D. He overlooks the fact that some absences are more justified than are others.
E. He ignores the possibility that absences may be unevenly distributed at the company
