d. workers may quit at any time for any reason.

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

**d. workers may quit at any time for any reason.**

The employment-at-will doctrine states that either the employer or the employee can terminate the employment relationship at any time, for any reason (as long as it's not illegal), without needing to provide notice or severance pay.
