Workers by shift
Day laborers are workers hired on a short-term basis, typically by the day, for manual labor such as construction, landscaping, or moving.
The term often refers to men who gather at designated spots—parking lots, street corners, home improvement stores—waiting for employers to pick them up for a day's work: A crew of day laborers was loading the truck.
