Teamsters and UPS reach settlement over driver buyouts, while company continues plans to slash 30,000 more jobs
When the Future of Jobs Report was first published in 2016, surveyed employers expected that 35% of workers’ skills would face disruption in the coming years.

In Canada we have: salespersons who sell you items (we used to have salesmen too), cashiers who just work at the cash register and don't assist you in choosing items, managers, and specialty workers such as butchers, bakers, etc. So there isn't a single word that would cover all persons working in a store. I suppose salesperson might be the most common position.
A Wikipedia article contains skilled, unskilled, semi-skilled, non-skilled and highly-skilled, as well as "Obama Immigration Order to Impact Millions, Includes Provisions for High-Skilled Workers".
5 There are about 10-12 co-workers who directly report to me in office. It's a private company but of very large size. They are Junior to me in terms of experience and also are below me in Organisation hierarchy. Also I am their manager/boss who is responsible for their annual appraisals in company.
1 "Companies" is the subject. There are two companies named as examples (Uber Technologies and DoorDash), each having its own staff. (Presumably they don't share the same collection of workers.) Therefore, the plural "staffs" is correct.
