Rule: 'For' vs. 'Since' in Perfect Tenses. The Present Perfect Continuous tense ('has been working') is used here. 'For' is used to denote a duration or period of time (e.g., for three hours, for two years). 'Since' is used to indicate a specific starting point in time (e.g., since 2022, since last Monday). As 'the last six months' represents a duration, 'for' is the correct preposition. Options (b) 'from' and (d) 'by' are not used to indicate duration in this tense.
