Author is contrasting female and male employee day-offs and likelihood to be sick. the conclusion should reflect the same
(A) Langlian employers prefer that sick employees stay home so as to avoid infecting others.
This is applicable for both male and female
(B) Childbearing and related medical conditions are responsible for the greater number of sick days taken by Langlian female workers.
We cannot conclude that from the passage
(C) In Langlia, both male and female workers sometimes call in sick when they are actually healthy.
This is applicable for both male and female. Also, we don't know that
(D) In Langlia, female workers are sick on more work days than male workers.
This makes sense. Females are likely to be more sick and take more sick days, suggest they are more sick
(E) Female workers in Langlia are more conscientious about their jobs than are male workers.
We cannot conclude that from the passage. Whether it is conscientious about their jobs or some other factor, we don't know that for sure
