Answer 1

1. c. Work Councils, Co-determination, Worker Co-operatives, Litigation

Non-union resolution forms include work councils, co-determination, worker co-operatives, and litigation. Work councils are made up of elected representatives of the firm and have the authority to provide consultation related to important decisions made by the firm. Co-determination includes the form where employees get representation on supervisory boards and participate in strategic decision making. Worker co-operatives include worker-owned and managed businesses. Litigation is another nonunion resolution method followed by the employees especially in international employment where the MNEs are made accountable for employee protection and human rights in foreign operations. Popular vote is a method used in President election and not a nonunion resolution technique.
