Home » Words: An Easy Categorized Vocabulary » Workers: Persons Who Perform Physical Work for Money

A worker is a person who is hired to do physical work instead of managing other people or organising things.

This typically refers to a person who performs manual labour in an office, trade, business, farm, ranch, or manufacturing goods in industry, etc. Most people who work get compensation for the work they do. We refer to this compensation as wages if it is time-bound, such as an hour, or a salary if it is time-independent, particularly when it comes to earning a living.
