I believe the answer is:

temps

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'office workers' is the definition.
'temps' can be an answer for 'workers' (temp is a kind of worker). I am unsure of the 'office' bit.

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for temps that I've seen before include "Nice weather" , "perhaps seasonal?" , "We come and go" .)
