Adepartment of state rule requires certain documents be shredded immediately after they are read as a security precaution. one employee puts all the documents he receives into a folder and shreds them at the end of the week instead. which principle of bureaucracy did the employee violate? a) limited government b) standardized rules and procedures c) specialization or d) hierarchical

The correct answer is B) Standardized rules and procedures.

The principle of bureaucracy that the employee violate is standardized rules and procedures.

The employee needs to be very strict with the order he receives. The Department of State handles very delicate information that is just reserved for them and many times is classified as "Top Secret." That is why he needs to shred the information immediately because there is a small percentage of risk that the information could end up in the wrong hands. That is why the Department has standardized rules and procedures that need to be followed.
