Scenario 7.2
Blake Windows & Doors Inc. installs and repairs doors and windows for Green Park Homes. When the firm started back in the 1980s, its operations were based only in Vancouver. Today, Blake is the main contractor for Green Park Homes across British Columbia. Employees with Blake work long hours, especially when new subdivisions are being built. The company now wants to increase its staff complement to help deal with increasing demands while maintaining some work-life balance. Blake found that employees from agencies tend to need too much hands-on training, which is costly, and if they do have some experience it is very costly to hire them due to the specific set of skills required.

A) the lack of a well-structured environment
B) poor training skills on the part of the mangers
C) the absence of well-defined job performance criteria
