Why are changes in work organization recommended?

To introduce new management styles
To eliminate undesirable features in work processes
To reduce salaries and wages
To make work more physically demanding

The correct answer is: To eliminate undesirable features in work processes

Changes in work organization are recommended in order to identify and eliminate aspects of work processes that are undesirable or inefficient. Introducing new management styles (option A) may be one possible solution for improving work organization, but it is not specified as a specific reason for why changes are recommended. Similarly, reducing salaries and wages (option C) would not inherently improve work organization and may actually have a negative impact. Making work more physically demanding (option D) would not directly address issues with work organization and could potentially have negative effects on employees. Therefore, the most correct answer is option B.
