Correct Answer: Union representatives


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Union representatives

Informal groups in an organization are typically formed based on common interests, shared characteristics, or social relationships that develop spontaneously within the organizational context. These groups are not officially recognized or structured by the organization's formal hierarchy or designated roles.

Union representatives, who represent the interests of employees and advocate for their rights within the organization, are an example of an informal group. They often emerge as a result of employees coming together to collectively address issues related to employment conditions, benefits, or negotiations with management. Union representatives are elected or chosen by the union members to represent their concerns and facilitate communication between the workforce and management.
