Explanation:

- Option 1: Apply to engage in the 'closed shop'.

- 'Closed shop' refers to a workplace where only union members can be hired. It's often prohibited in many regions due to legal changes aimed at protecting workers' rights to choose whether to join a union.

- Option 2: Engage in collective bargaining with an employer.

- Green tick This is correct. Once a union is recognized, it gains the right to negotiate with the employer on behalf of its members, discussing wages, working conditions, and other employment terms.

- Option 3: Apply to be referred to as a 'workplace union'.

- This isn't a formal process. Recognition typically already implies that the union represents the workforce officially.

- Option 4: Apply for union status.

- Recognition means the union already has 'union status', so applying for it again is unnecessary.
