A shift of a union's focus to issues of pay equity and flexible work arrangements is most likely an effort to organize which type of worker?

  1. Millennials

  2. Blue collar

  3. Women

  4. Liberal

The correct answer is: Women

One important reason why B is incorrect is because union organizing among blue-collar workers is already well established and has a strong presence in the labor movement. Therefore, shifting focus to these workers would not require a significant effort. Additionally, while millennials and liberals may also benefit from pay equity and flexible work arrangements, these issues are not typically associated with organization of those demographics. Thus, C - women - is the most likely target for organizing efforts focused on these issues. This could be because they face the greatest challenges in terms of pay inequities and a lack of flexibility in the workplace. Therefore, a shift in focus to these issues would likely resonate with women and potentially lead to successful organizing efforts.
