Colliers (6)

I believe the answer is:

miners

(Other definitions for miners that I've seen before include "Extractors" , "They work below ground" , "Pit workers" , "Labourers below ground" , "They excavate the earth" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, the King Feature Syndicate and The Telegraph.
