If the relative pronoun is followed by a verb, the relative pronoun is a subject pronoun. Subject pronouns must always be used. The apple which is on the table is green. The man who drove the car was very old. The worker that wears a jacket is very sad.

If the relative pronoun is not followed by a verb (but by a noun or pronoun), the relative pronoun is an object pronoun. Object pronouns can be omitted in relative clauses: The apple (which) George lay on the table is green. The man (who(m)) we saw in the car is very old. The worker (that) the boss warned is very sad.
