Question
In the following question, a sentence is divided into
five parts. The bold part is grammatically correct. Out of the other five parts, one part has an error. Mark the option containing the error. Effective leaders understand (A)/ the importance of /work-life balance and implement (B)/ policies that allow employees (C)/ to manage their workload while (D)/ having maintained personal well-being. (E)Solution
The error in the sentence is in the phrase "while having maintained personal well-being." This phrase is not correct as it disturbs the meaning of the sentence. "Having maintained" suggests a one-time action in the past, whereas the intended meaning indicates an ongoing state which can be conveyed using 'maintaining' alone. To correct this error, we need to remove the verb 'having' and use the -ing form of the verb "maintain," which matches the context of the sentence. The corrected phrase "while maintaining personal well-being" maintains relevance with the preceding clause "allow employees to manage their workload" and ensures coherence within the sentence. Hence, the corrected sentence is: "Effective leaders understand the importance of work-life balance and implement policies that allow employees to manage their workload while maintaining personal well-being."
