Grey Collar refers to the balance of employed persons not classified as white or blue collar. Although grey collar is sometimes used to describe those who work beyond the age of retirement, its most widely accepted meaning refers to occupations that incorporate some of the elements of both Blue and White collar, or are completely different from both categories.

Examples of Gray Collar industries:

  • Farming, Fishing, Forestry and other forms of Agribusiness
  • Health care, aged care, child care and the personal service sector
  • Protective services and security
  • Food preparation and the catering industry
