Nata [24]

Answer:

merge law and equity

Explanation:

In resolving labour related or welfare issues the best way to do so will be to hear the grievances of the striking workers and try to find an equitable solution to the situation.

However if all reasonable avenues have been pursued and they still don't want to comply, then legal measures can be taken to make them work.

In this scenario Reginald should call the striking workers and try to come to an equitable solution for the business and workers where there will be a win-win.

If this does not work he can use the law to compel them to comply.
