Answer 1

The correct option is A Pluralist approach

The balance of power is not vested with any one group; rather, it is maintained between the parties to industrial relations. This is the essence of the pluralist approach of industrial relations. The pluralistic approach suggests that there is more than one source of power in the relationship between workers and business leaders. Unions are often a central component to the pluralistic approach that seeks a balance of power between leadership and employees.
