The third alternative is correct (C).

The qualification of the work is associated to the number of hours of study and preparation that the worker possesses. In this way, unskilled workers are those who do not have a sufficient degree of education for positions that require some qualification.

The mass production system hires unqualified workers to subaltern or manual positions. In this exercise, unskilled workers are those hired to care for the machines, for a lower salary. The skilled workers are those who operate the machines and have a higher salary.
