It is believed that the labour groups are becoming more demanding and aware of their rights. Therefore their demands can not be ignored. Timely and periodical acts of labour welfare can appease the workers is belief of the following theory :

  • A.The Public Relation Theory
  • B.The Philanthropic Theory
  • C.The Trusteeship Theory
  • D.Placating Theory

Answer: D

The belief described is that of the Placating Theory.

Among the theories of labour welfare, the placating (appeasement) theory holds that as workers organise and grow more demanding, employers provide welfare measures periodically to pacify them and keep peace in the workplace, much as one placates a demanding child.

The public relations theory sees welfare as a way to build a good image of the company with the public. The philanthropic theory rests on the employer's love of humanity, and the trusteeship theory on the idea that the employer holds the firm's resources in trust for the workers' benefit. None of them is about appeasing growing labour demands.
