Question

    In each question below is given a statement followed by three courses of action numbered I, II, and III. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true and on the basis of the information given in the statement, decide which of the suggested courses of action logically follow(s).

    Statement:  A huge blast took place in a cracker company while workers were loading the explosives into the loaders.

    Courses of Action:

    I. These workers should be terminated and new workers should be hired.

    II. Proper training on “How to handle these kinds of explosives” should be provided to the company's workers.

    III. Workers should be fined a hefty amount so that the same event does not occur in the future.

    A Only I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    For 1st course of action i.e. these workers should be terminated and new workers should be hired. This does not follow as we cannot assure that the new workers will not commit any mistake. For 2nd course of action i.e. proper training on “How to handle these kinds of explosives” should be provided to the workers of the company's workers. This is a correct action to be followed as training workers will decrease the chances of any future mishappening. For 3rd course of action i.e. workers should be fined a hefty amount so that the same event does not occur in the future. This does not follow as we cannot assure that penalising workers will ensure not happening of these kinds of events in the future.
