C Correct answer
Explanation

The RESTART parameter in JCL is used to restart a job from a specific step or checkpoint after it has been stopped or failed. This allows for job recovery without rerunning completed steps. RETURN, STARTUP, and CHECKPNT are not valid JCL parameters for restarting jobs - RESTART is the correct mechanism.
