Question

Assertion (A): Transfer is a vertical shifting of employees.

Reason (R): Transfer involves shifting of an employee from one job to another, one department to another or from one shift to another, without a substantive change in the responsibilities and status of the employee.

Options

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

• Assertion (A) is True but Reason (R) is False.

• Assertion (A) is False but Reason (R) is True.

Answer 1

Assertion (A) is False but Reason (R) is True.

Explanation:

• Assertion is false because transfer is a horizontal shift, not vertical.
• Reason is true as it correctly explains that transfer means moving an employee without change in status or responsibility.
