  1. 1.A --> too massive , too is redundant
    B --> same as A
    C --> escape their (should be its , singular)
    D --> Same as C
    E --> Perfect


    2.A --> this infact increases the productivity (or keep it at the same level). But it certainly wont decrease.
    B --> out of scope
    C --> decreases; but still not the best
    D --> Best answer; if the workers interact frequently, the relaxed timings would affect the productivity. E.g: The workers coming in early will have to wait for the other resources for explaining any plan, etc.
    E --> out of scope
