IMO E...
oneself or themselves required instead of one's or them...A & D out
that is redundant in B...
Btw C & E....I choose E because we are talking about pensions of workers not pension of a worker....so workers....themselves...nt sure if its the right reasoning...
OA plz...

E for me. I don't think you can use the "one" to refer back to "a worker". You need "he or she".
IE: ...work a student must finish in order to receive his or her grade.
so: ...money a worker is compelled to put away to take care of himself/herself in later years
