Answer 1

Answer:

The Safety Committee is an example of a horizontal design within an organization.

Explanation:

In a horizontal design, members or workers perform certain tasks in which they are not given orders by the manager. They perform the tasks on their own and might inform the actions to the manager. The same design was being used by the Safety Committee in which the members met twice a month as a committee.

On the other hand, a vertical design is a business design in which the manager simply orders the workers to perform tasks ans all the tasks are performed accordingly to the manager.
