a. Workers

b. Employers

Explanation:

An external cost occurs refers to the cost (negative effect) upon a third party. These external costs in consuming goods and services are known as negative externalities. They represent the social costs borne by society instead of by the direct consumers of goods or services.  For example, when a motorist purchases gasoline at the station, she pays for the fuel.  But there is a cost associated with the consumption of fuel which affects society.  The cost is not borne by the motorist directly but by third parties, who did not elect to use the gasoline.
