Answer 1

A) Production deviance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Workplace deviance is a group psychology concept that refers to deliberate intention to cause harm to an organisation, to a workplace specifically.

In other word, it's a voluntary behaviour that violates organisation's norms.

Particularly, in this case, it's a production deviance, because not working right amount of hours will cause production problems, since that Andy works at a shoe manufacturing.
