White Collar Workers | Meaning and Definition

What are white-collar jobs?

Employees who are hired primarily owing to their appropriate academic degrees and therefore are part of high-skilled jobs are referred to as white-collar workers. Manual and labor responsibilities are not part of the White-Collar worker’s job description. White-collar workers have traditionally been the “shirt and tie” set, with office employment and management. They usually work in an office setting and, therefore, require more education and training than blue-collar laborers. Company management, then lawyers, doctors, accountants, managers, as well as financial and insurance jobs, consultants, and also computer programmers are all examples of white-collar jobs.
