Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
While employers may use various tactics to discourage unionization, illegally discharging union supporters is a violation of federal labor law and can lead to serious consequences for the employer. Therefore, it is unlikely that the majority of employers would take this action during a union representation campaign. The other three choices are common tactics used by employers to discourage unionization.
