Correct Answer: Division of labor


Solution : The correct answer is (b) Division of labor

The principle of "Division of labor" involves breaking down the overall work into smaller, specialized tasks and assigning them to individuals or groups based on their skills, expertise, and capabilities. This specialization helps in improving efficiency and productivity within the organization. In the case of XYZ Electronics, assigning specialized tasks to employees based on their skills aligns with the principle of division of labor, aiming to enhance efficiency by utilizing the strengths and capabilities of each employee in specific tasks.
