los eruditos


Explanation:
I take this as meaning those that are knowledgable about their fields. You may also want to say "los que tienen conocimiento de la tarea". Hope this helps you! Good luck!

Trabajadores del saber


Explanation:
I think this answer is the most accurate. "Eruditos" is a nice one, but I think that if the original would have wanted to mean it, the words "erudite" or "scholar" would have been used. I think it is trying to make a play on words with "normal" workers and those who work with knowledge. Well, that's just my opinion and I hope it helps.

técnicos de la información


Explanation:
En el contexto a que se refiere el texto, es posible que "knowledge workers" tiene un sentido más restringido, es decir, los que procesan la información por ordenador. Me baso en la última frase sobre los "frequent flyers".

tecnicos de la informacío


Explanation:
'Knowledge engineers' - a standard term, with meaning now extended to 'knowledge workers', meaning 'those who work with data/data technology' as oppsosed to the other 'standard workers' in maintenance etc.

I would use Parrot's term.

Explanation:
Gonzalo is absolutely right, this is widely used, and I would say it is the standard translation now.

trabajadores del conocimiento


Explanation:
I agree with Gonzalo. If you´re translating something related to technology, this is the term. It´s all over Microsoft Web sites.
