E)The company reaps benefits when the employees exercise during the day only if those employees are otherwise couch potatoes. If employees are already exercising during non-work hours, displacing that exercise into the work day has no additional effect, so Choice E is the company's assumption. Choice A:The company doesn't assume that exercise is the most effective way to improve workers' moods, only that it is an effective way. There is no mention in the policy about how strenuous the workers will exercise (Choice B)or whether space or equipment is necessary (Choice D). Choice C:The company is not forcing employees to exercise; it's merely providing the opportunity.
