Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The question states that the top management makes up only 5% of the workforce, but they make most of the decisions. Therefore, the top management constitutes a majority group that commands decision-making power, and option C is the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because although workers outnumber top management, they do not form the majority group in terms of decision-making power. Option B is incorrect because the question does not suggest that the minority group controls the resources and decision-making power. Option D is incorrect because the question does not mention anything about the social status or acceptance of the majority group. Option E is also incorrect because it is already stated that the majority group in Minipax is composed of low-skilled workers who are mostly from ethnic minorities.
