(A) a consequence of sitting too close to large jet engines for long periods of time
(B) a consequence from sitting for long periods of time too near to large jet engines --> consequence of is idiomatic
(C) a consequence which resulted from sitting too close to large jet engines for long periods of time --> redundancy
(D) damaged from sitting too near to large jet engines for long periods of time --> damaged modifies preceding noun(hearing impairment).
(E) damaged because they sat too close to large jet engines for long periods of time --> same as D
Cheers!

consequence of is the correct idiom.

damaged...is not the correct modifier. D and E poe.

A is apt.

Just a quick note. This sentence uses "Absolute Phrase", a GMAT favorite. Anyone appearing in GMAT should make oneself absolutely comfortable with Absolute Phrases, especially since the usage is not very intuitive/friendly to the ear.

#48 and #83 in OG 12, among many other such examples, use "Absolute Phrases".
