I gave you an upvote.
I could see a case for using "working person" instead of "worker." It's definitely not the sort of thing that's agreed to be exploitative language (yet?) though.
What I do for sure bristle at a lot more is referring to people as "resources." Like, when planning a project, discussing how many "resources" can be "put on the project". Definitely feels dehumanizing.
