kétkezi munka
Explanation:
Pontosan, ahogy sejtetted.

Pl. "Through manufacturing, both "touch" labor and intellectual labor become transportable through space and time."
"Because these processes are highly automated, the size of the workforce required to produce and deliver manufactured products to the customer will be greatly reduced. Consequently, low-cost, so-called touch labor will lose its competitive advantage in the production of physical objects."
