Explanation:

When working around machines, loose clothing can get caught in moving parts of the machinery, which can lead to serious injuries like entanglement. Close - fitting clothing reduces this risk as it is less likely to be caught. The option "Keeps the machines cleaner" is incorrect as clothing's fit has no relation to machine cleanliness. "Prevent damage to the machines" is wrong because clothing fit doesn't protect machines from damage. "Promote an attractive appearance for visitors" is also incorrect as the main concern around machinery is safety, not appearance for visitors.

Answer:

C. Prevent injury caused by clothing getting caught in machinery
