answer explanation:
<p>It is not the company's policy to grant sick leave <strong>or</strong> overtime pay to part-time employees.</p>
<p>The correct answer is <strong>(D) or</strong>.</p>
<p>The sentence is stating that the company's policy does not allow for two things to be granted to part-time employees: sick leave and overtime pay. The word "or" is used to show that the company does not grant either of these benefits to part-time employees. The other options, "yet," "if," and "but," do not convey the same meaning as "or" in this context.</p>
