Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Open-door policies are intended to encourage open communication, feedback, and discussion about any matter of importance to an employee. However, a key problem with such policies is that workers may still feel reluctant to approach managers with their complaints due to fear of retaliation, lack of trust, or the belief that their concerns will not be taken seriously or acted upon.
