Which of the following management styles is Sally demonstrating?

Sally's department was scheduled to work from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. It was announced to all employees that a severe winter storm was expected to reach the city between 4:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. Employees of Sally's department asked if they, like most other departments, would be allowed to leave work at 3:00 p.m. to avoid being caught in the storm. Sally was sympathetic, but after much discussion denied the request, stating that the policy was clear that employees were to remain on duty until 5:00 p.m.
