The term "white collar" refers to office workers and professionals who typically wear dress shirts and ties, often white in color, as part of their work attire. Coined by sociologist Edwin Sutherland in the 1930s, it contrasts with "blue collar," which describes manual laborers who often wear blue uniforms or work shirts. The distinction highlights the differences in job types, working environments, and social classes, emphasizing the rise of service and administrative occupations in the economy.
