Answer:

Option a. In the context of workplace deviance, this is an example of production deviance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Workplace deviance is defined, in group psychology, as the intentional or deliberate desire to cause harm to an organization such as the workplace. Within workplace deviance there are different types of conducts that can harm or violate the norms of the organization the individual is working for. One of them is called production deviance, that is related to offenses the worker make towards the organization or company such as absenteeism, tardiness or withholding effort in the tasks he/she is expected to perform. When George takes two days to complete a task that can be completed in a day, he is incurring in production deviance, as he is withholding the effort he should be putting in the task, in order to take longer than he could take to finish it.
