Explanation

100% inspection of hand-applied labels directly ensures labeling accuracy (B) - every unit is checked, catching misapplications, misalignments, or wrong labels before products reach customers. This is a core quality control principle: when automation isn't handling the labeling, manual 100% inspection compensates by verifying each label individually.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • A (increase packaging time) - while 100% inspection may slow throughput, that's a side effect, not the purpose of the process.
  • C (create more work for inspectors) - again a consequence, not a goal; inspectors exist to catch defects, not to generate workload for its own sake.
  • D (reduce need for automated systems) - the opposite is closer to true; thorough manual inspection often highlights where automation would help.

Memory tip: Think of the phrase "hand-applied = human error risk." Whenever humans apply labels, 100% inspection is the countermeasure - its entire purpose is accuracy assurance, not time, workload, or automation decisions.
