Which type of control is prevalent in the organizational structure of bureaucracy ?

  • A.Legal control
  • B.Formal control
  • C.Laissez-faire control
  • D.Informal control

Answer: B

The control prevalent in bureaucracy is Formal control.

Bureaucracies are governed by written rules, an official hierarchy, defined duties and records. Control works through these formal channels rather than through personal relationships or custom.

Informal control (gossip, peer pressure) operates in all groups but is not what characterises bureaucracy. Laissez-faire is the absence of control, and 'legal control' describes the law of the state rather than the organisation's own structure.
