Answer to Question 1

C
Explanation: C) Employees tend to experience the highest level of positive moods on Saturdays. Refer to exhibit 4-3.

Answer to Question 2

E
Explanation: E) Job rotation is the periodic shifting of an employee from one task to another with similar skill requirements at the same organizational level. With the busiest business season coming up, time is at a premium for this company, and job rotation, though beneficial in the long run, will result in wastage of time for all employees involved; it will also cause a drop in the immediate productivity. If the employees of the company have similar skill sets which are suited to transfer of learning, then this would strengthen the argument in favor of adopting job rotation. The fact that the company has been conducting professional training programs to keep all employees up-to-date with the developments in the field does not weaken the argument of adopting job rotation. The fact that AmWeb, one of the major rival firms, witnessed a substantial rise in profits following its cross-training program for employees does not strengthen or weaken the argument of adopting job rotation for CalTrack. The fact that research evidence favoring job rotation has rarely used samples from the service industry does not strengthen or weaken the argument of adopting job rotation.
