SC 2 OA should be C

the correct sentence should look like
--------
In Hungary, as in much of Eastern Europe, an overwhelming proportion of women work, many of them in middle management and light industry.



Where is run on ..?

many of them in middle management and light industry -- is not a independent clause
This time no looking back!!!

Run-on sentences are the improper joining of two independent clauses. Independent clauses need to be separated by a period, a semicolon, or by a coordinating conjunction.

many of which are in middle management and light industry is not an independent clause; I suppose it might be called a nominal relative clause in apposition (though I would have to double-check all my terminology).
