A day worker is someone who works on a daily basis, usually for a short period of time. The term 'day worker' can refer to two different types of workers: a TEMP (4 letters) and a LABORER (7 letters). A TEMP is a person who is hired on a temporary basis to fill a specific role or job, usually for a short period of time. A LABORER is someone who performs manual labor, such as construction work, factory work, or other physical tasks. Day workers are often employed in industries that require a large number of workers for short periods of time, such as agriculture or seasonal businesses.
