Answer option D is correct.
A company cannot threaten employees or make promises to them contingent on the workforce
remaining union free. A philosophy statement should be geared toward communicating the
company's desire to work directly with the employees in discussions about working conditions or
benefits. If a union does attempt to organize, it is important for the employer to work directly with
outside council to determine the strategic benefits of discussing the desire to remain union free and
the disadvantages/limitations of unions as employee representatives.
