Answer and explanation:

The EVLN (Exit, Voice, Loyalty, Neglect) model explains how employees react differently in front of dissatisfaction at work. In such a way:

Exit: implies quitting or requesting a change of roles within the same organization. Voice: involves providing constructive suggestions about a stressful situation. Loyalty: implies waiting for the issue to be solved by others. Neglect: involves reducing labor efficiency to harm the company's performance.

Thus, in the example, the exit (employee who quits), voice (employee who complains), and loyalty (employee who does nothing) reactions are used by employees even if they share the general idea that payments are low.
