The correct option is A) Conciliation.

– Conciliation is a process in industrial relations where a neutral third party (conciliator) helps the disputing parties (employer and workmen) to communicate, understand each other’s viewpoints, and explore possible solutions to reach a voluntary settlement of their industrial dispute. The conciliator facilitates discussions and may suggest terms of settlement but does not impose a decision. This matches the description of a third party persuading and facilitating settlement.

– Arbitration involves a third party (arbitrator) hearing the arguments of both sides and giving a binding decision (award) to resolve the dispute, based on the agreement of the parties to refer the dispute to arbitration.
– Collective Bargaining is a process of negotiation between the management and trade union representatives to determine terms and conditions of employment. It does not involve a third-party facilitator in the negotiation itself.
– Compulsory Adjudication is a process where the government refers an industrial dispute to a Labour Court or Industrial Tribunal for a binding decision. This is a form of compulsory dispute resolution, not facilitation for voluntary settlement.
