between D and E.. for comparing "severence packages" with "SPs"

D looks best.

E --"the last day that they are scheduled to collect" awkward.. means.. they are collecting days..


I don't agree with OA.

What is the source? and OE?

D looks best to me, here their unambiguosly refers back to workers while in E, what does they refer back to?? Is it workers or severance packages?
Should be D

I think D is wrong because "their last scheduled day in order to collect" changes the meaning.
