Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": agency shop agreement.

Explanation:

Agency shop agreement is a union arrangement that allows employers to hire union and non-union workers without affecting the company's organization. In some cases, workers must join the union to keep the job, while in others, they could decide not to join the union but they must pay a fee to cover the expenses of collective bargaining.
