Question Stats:

Companies O and P each have the same number of employees who work the same number of hours per week. According to records maintained by each company, the employees of Company O had fewer job-related accidents last year than did the employees of Company P.

Its B. This can be best weakened by an option that really talks about what accidents are considered to be job related. Option (B) says that the Company P considered more types of accidents to be job-related than did company O. As a result, fewer accidents were recorded by Company A in comparison with Company B.
