Question

Nikita and Salman completed their MBA and started working in a multinational company at the same level. Both are working hard and are happy with their employer. Salman had the habit of backbiting any wrong reporting about his colleagues to impress his boss. All the employees in the organization knew about it. At the time of performance appraisal the performance of Nikita was judged better than Salman. Even then, their boss, Mohammad Sharif decided to promote Salman stating that being a female Nikita will not be able to handle the complications of higher post.

Identify the principle of management that was not followed by this multinational company.

Options

• Discipline

• Order

• Equity

• Scaler Chain

Answer 1

Equity

Explanation:

In this case, even though Nikita’s performance was better than Salman’s, Salman was promoted because Nikita is a female. This is unfair. According to the principle of Equity, all employees must be treated fairly and without discrimination based on gender, caste, or other personal factors. By not following this principle, the company has violated the principle of Equity.
