I remember discussing how pay grades can help with compliance, but I’m not sure if that’s the primary purpose. Maybe option B?

This question seems straightforward - the Bridges model covers the different phases of transition, so the 'endings' phase is likely the key here. I think the answer is B, focusing on the emotional content of the issues.

Okay, I've got this. INTOSAI is the International Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions, and they set standards for government audits. IFAC is the International Federation of Accountants, and they provide additional guidance. The answer has to be B.

Option A is the way to go. Though I do wonder if the pay grades are based on the actual value of the work or the perceived value of the employee's haircut.

Option D is tempting, but I doubt that's the primary purpose. Justifying paying below market value sounds more like a sneaky management tactic.
