Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is safety needs.

Explanation:

This is the second level in Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Safety needs imply employment, money, protection from danger or anything that guarantees one's well-being.

The absence of physical safety, such as violence or crime, has been shown to result in conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder.
