Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term used for managers who fill in for striking union members to keep the operations running is "strikebreakers." Choice A (boycotts) and choice E (stewards) are unrelated to the scenario. While choice B (heroes) may be seen as positive, it does not accurately reflect the controversial nature of strikebreaking. Choice C (wildcatters) typically refers to individuals who work independently of a union, and is not applicable in this context.
