The correct answer is D that is agency shop agreement

Explanation:

Agency shop agreement is the agreement or the contract in which the workers do not have to join the union but the non - members needed to pay either the special union fee or the regular union dues.

Union supporters justify the agreement because the efforts of the collective bargaining benefit all the workers not just those who are into the union.

In this case, Amie hired as a repairperson and informed that she still have to pay the fee if she also choses not to join the union, therefore, it operates under the agency shop agreement.
