A. The workers of the glass-blowing plant which had been recently involved in a heated debate with the management were considering a new offer this week which appeared as soon as the strike began.
The plant was not involved in a debate. Eliminate


B. The workers of the glass-blowing plant, who had been recently involved in a heated debate with the management, were considering a new offer this week which appeared as soon as the strike began.
The offer appeared(not the week) as soon as strike began


C. The glass-blowing plant workers, who had been recently involved in a heated debate with the management, were considering a new offer this week which appeared as soon as the strike began.
Same as B

D. This week, the glass-blowing plant workers, who had been recently involved in a heated debate with the management, were considering a new offer which appeared as soon as the strike began.
Correct

E. The workers of glass blowing plant who had been recently involved in a heated debate with the management were considering a new offer which appeared as soon as the strike began this week.
The positioning of 'this week' is wrong. This sentence means that the strike began this week. The intended meaning is the workers were considering a new offer this week. It does not matter when the strike began.
