A manager is of the view that he is not responsible for the quality of work

‘A manager is of the view that he is not responsible for the quality of work, he has delegated responsibility to his subordinate’. Do you agree with his viewpoint? Justify your answer by giving proper arguments.

I do not agree with the view-point of the manager, as authority can be delegated, but responsibility cannot be delegated by a manager. The manager remains responsible to his own superior for the tasks, which he may have assigned to his subordinate.
In other words, the manager cannot escape his responsibility for any default or mistake on the part of his subordinates. The process of delegation does not relieve the manager of his own responsibility.
