Given below are two statements-statement one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A): You can find people with fixation, obsessions and complusions who put work ahead of health and family but this is not normal; work after all is only work. Reason (R): The key to success as a manager is intervening effectively, doing the right things at the right time. In the light of the above two statements choose the correct option:

Given below are two statements-statement one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A): You can find people with fixation, obsessions and complusions who put work ahead of health and family but this is not normal; work after all is only work. Reason (R): The key to success as a manager is intervening effectively, doing the right things at the right time. In the light of the above two statements choose the correct option: Correct Answer Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)

Assertion and reasoning-type questions have one assertion (A) and one reason (R). We must first determine whether the statement is true. If the statement is true, we must next determine whether the reason correctly explains the assertion. 

First, we will consider the statement of Assertion:

You can find people with fixation, obsessions, and compulsions who put work ahead of health and family but this is not normal; work after all only works. In the end, individuals get paid for the work they do. In order to survive in society, it is the economical aspect that will help an individual to survive. Though, it is not normal that people put work ahead of health and family because not only money but emotional support is always important for psychological needs.

Hence, the statement provided in the assertion is correct.

Now we will consider the statement of Reason:

The key to success as a manager is intervening effectively, doing the right things at the right time. It is correct because an individual will get appreciation and promotion at work if s/he puts more effort continuously. But, it does not convey that one has to put work at first before family and health.

Hence, the statement provided in the reason is also correct.
 

Conclusion: We can say that Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
