Definition(s)

  • White-collar work is perceived as being corporate level or business-oriented and is performed in an office setting or at a desk using technical and electronic resources such as computers. Whereas some organizations may be solely composed of positions defined as white-collar work, others have a variety of work to include white-collar, blue-collar, and service-level positions.
