Answer:

d) no change is necessary.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence reads: Bill, the foreman of the construction company, is concerned about the safety in the large building. They have had three accidents in the past week.

This needs no change as the subject is talking about 'the company' as a whole. So, the subject will be taking the plural form, thus making the use of 'they" valid.
