  1. Journeymen Barbers

  2. Master Barbers

  3. Apprentice Barbers

  4. Elitist Barbers

The correct answer is: Journeymen Barbers

During the late 1800s, employee organizations were known as journeymen barbers. This term was used to refer to skilled craftsmen, such as barbers, who were members of trade unions or guilds. These organizations provided support and protection for workers, including advocating for better wages and working conditions. The other options, B, C and D, were not commonly used terms to refer to members of employee organizations during this time period. B Master Barbers were typically business owners and not part of employee organizations. C: Apprentice Barbers were still in training and not yet considered full-fledged employees or members of organizations. D: Elitist Barbers suggests exclusivity and privilege, which was not a characteristic of employee organizations in the late 1800s.
