Blue-collar jobs

Blue-collar jobs refer to positions that typically involve manual labor or technical skills, often performed in industries such as manufacturing, construction, maintenance, and transportation. These roles usually require specialized training or apprenticeships rather than a college degree. Workers in blue-collar jobs often operate machinery, build infrastructure, or repair equipment. Compensation can be hourly or based on production. While these jobs may not usually require advanced academic education, they are essential to the economy and can offer stable, well-paying careers with opportunities for advancement.
