Answer to Question 1

A
Explanation: A) If the company is on a tight deadline to complete a major project for an important client, then this would most likely justify the use of coercive techniques. If the company is in its lean season and work volumes are low, then this weakens the argument to use coercive techniques. If the company can afford to hire temp workers to handle the backlog and complete the work on time, then this would weaken the need to use coercion. If employees have highly specialized skill sets, then the use of coercion might result in employee backlash. If employees are demotivated because of the stringent work culture, then using coercive techniques would only demoralize them further.
