2. Essential of Management Case (20 Marks) Mr Venu Gopal was the section officer in charge of a large administration section. There were 10 typists above 50 years of age and one zerox machine operator. Though the type writers had been discarded and personal computers purchased, the typists were not in a position to use computers and were manually entering the incoming and outgoing letters in inwards and outwards registers. The staff had become redundant. Though there was not much work load of photocopying of letters, the photocopier machine remained out of order and there was no work for operator.

3. There was a rate contract for the repairs and maintenance of photo copier machine but the mechanic was hardly visiting the office for repair work.
