灰领
灰领是指未归类为白領或藍領的高技能就业人员。它有时也指那些已到退休年龄後繼續工作的老年人。就收入而言，灰领通常介于白領以及藍領之間。[1][2][3]
灰领工人通常拥有特定领域的專科學校或技术学校的畢業證、副学士学位、证书或文凭。他们与蓝领工人不同，蓝领工人通常可以在剛開始工作的頭几周内接受培训，而灰领工人在入職前就已经拥有特定的技能，并且比蓝领同行需要擁有更多的专业知识。

The least defined term of all seems to be grey collar, which can refer to those working well into their 60s, because they can't afford to retire, or to an underemployed white collar worker, such as someone with a bachelor's degree in English literature working as a customer service representative.
