Timothy Jenkins had been working for six years at Hartford Mills, a company that takes a strong stand against unionization. Though Timothy's designation was that of a production supervisor, as the company grew, he also took on additional duties like keeping a check on employee safety, ensuring that legal measures are followed, and implementing programs for labor welfare that the company planned. Many believed that Timothy was doing a great job for the company, and so it came as a surprise when Timothy was rumored to face severe disciplinary action, as he was encouraging the workers to join a union. However, he was let off with a mere warning. Timothy argued that he was only doing his job—a job in which he had responsibility for improving the welfare of employees. Which of the following, if true, would help Hartford Mills avoid such situations in the future?
◦ engaging in collective bargaining as it is the only way to motivate employees to work efficiently
◦ specifying the permissible and prohibited aspects of an employee's formal role in the organization
◦ holding town hall meetings to explain to employees why Timothy was suspected
◦ ensuring the provision of a retaliatory policy for employees who go against the company
◦ enlisting the support of popular employees like Timothy to discharge the employee welfare duties
