You know, they could've just called in 'Rosie the Riveter' to fix the safety guard. She wouldn't have taken any nonsense from the manager. Safety first, productivity second!

If I were the factory manager, I'd be looking for a new job. Seriously, who rewards employees for operating dangerous equipment? That's just asking for a lawsuit. Option B is the way to go.

This is a classic case of 'profits over people.' Management's actions in this scenario scream 'we don't care about your well-being as long as the machines keep running.' Definitely Option B.

I'm going with C on this one. A factory that prioritizes productivity over safety is likely to have a poor safety record. It's a recipe for disaster waiting to happen.

Option B seems to be the most accurate. By rewarding the employee for operating the damaged equipment, the factory manager is essentially showing that they prioritize productivity over employee safety - not a good look for the control environment.
