Correct Answer: are reflective of the level of job satisfaction
Solution : The correct choice is the first option.
Explanation : The use of " are " instead of " were " in the sentence is justified because it maintains the present tense agreement with the subjects "the percentage of employees" and "the number of employees".
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "The percentage of employees who called in sick and the number of employees who left their jobs within 2 years are reflective of the level of job satisfaction. "
