Verbal Doubt on Subjunctive Usage

Expert replies
by nishanth.kadi » Wed Jun 27, 2012 9:27 am
Q) The new government requires employers to inform an employee of their legal right to holidays and overtime pay.

a) employers to inform an employee of their
b) employers to inform employees that he has a
c) employers to inform employees that there is a
d) that employers inform an employee of their
e) that employers inform the employees that they have a


The OA is c...But I don't understand it. Is this not a case where we need to use the Subjunctive mood?(Because there is "request")In that case the answer should have been d or e. I chose e.

Please explain.

Answers A, B, D and E are ambiguous because of pronouns used.
A - pronoun "their" seems to be referring to the noun "employers", so this answer is illogical
B - "he" - apart from ambiguity the pronoun is singular and the preceding nouns are plural, so this answer is also grammatically incorrect
D - the pronoun "their" seems to be referring to the noun "employers" which makes this answer illogical
E - "they" is used and the answer is ambiguous

Thus c is correct.

As to the Subjunctive it is only a distractor here.

Require is one of the verbs that can be used in subjunctive but only if we have a dependent clause: require that _________. The verb that expresses the requirement would then be subjunctive.

D and E create a dependent clause, but both answers have other issues: "an employee" and "the employees." As Kasia said, subjunctive options are simply included here to distract us.

is the use of "there" correct in c??

The use of "there" is correct. "There" refers to the fact that the law mentioned in the sentence EXISTS SOMEWHERE (in this case probably in the Labor Code or another legal act).
