Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Before writing job descriptions, management decides which assignments to delegate. Job descriptions are based on the functional needs of the agency and clarify the responsibility of the individual's position and the objectives of the work.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Organizational charts help clarify who is responsible to whom and for what. Multiple bosses, confusion over who is responsible and who has authority for what, and duplication of tasks can be prevented with planning. A nurse's aide giving a report to the team leader is an effective use of the organizational chart.
