Instructions for Q 3-4: Apart from the paragraph 4 options are given, you have to, choose the best option which completes the paragraph. : ,, , 3. Paragraph Completion: Threats to Insurance Industry, , The better behavior resulting from smart devices is just one threat to the insurance industry, , Conventional risk pools (for home or car insurance; for example) are shrinking as preventabie, accidents decline, leaving the slow-footed giants of the industry at risk. Business is instead, moving to digital-native insurers, many of which are-offering low premiums to those willing, to collect and share their data. Yet tlie biggest winners could be tech companies rather than the, firms that now dominate the industry. Insurance is increasingly reliant on the use of, technology to change behavior; firms act as helicopter parents to policyholders, warming of, impending harm—slow down; reduce your sugar intake; call the plumber—the better to, , reduce unnecessary payouts., , A. The growing mountain of personal data available to individuals and, crucially, to firms is, giving those with the necessary processing power the ability to distinguish between lowrisk and high-risk individuals., , 3B.

Such, exemptions strengthen their power. This is useful because for all the effort unions throw at, raising the minimum wage, laws for better pay have an awkward habit of undermining union, , clout., PO Once employers are obliged to pay the same minimum wage to both unionized and nonunionized labor, workers often see less reason to pay the dues to join a union., , B. High rates of unionization make minimum-wage rules unnecessary as collaborative wage, setting achieves the flexibility goals of a low minimum wage and the fairness goals of a, , high one., , C. Workers who have no real alternative to employment in the unregulated shadows of the, labor market are even more vulnerable to exploitation and abuse than workers with the, legal right to take low wages., , D. The labor ethos of worker solidarity seems hollow if non-inion workers are underpriced, by union workers and left unemployed or scrambling for unauthorized work., , Paper Code : M-55/ Set-B 14] Entrance Examination - 2020-2!, , VEAGTINIGSU VVILII udl
