In which situation may oral confirmation still be necessary after written instructions have been given?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: When the task is complex and an error could cause significant financial loss.
A complex, high-risk task can be harmed by even a small misunderstanding. Oral confirmation gives the receiver a chance to restate the instructions, ask questions, and correct errors before acting. Good wishes and messages requiring no action do not need this check, and simple low-risk directions usually do not justify the extra step.
