In the spirit of the What is a Word™/Phrase™ series started by JLee, a special brand of Phrase™ and Word™ puzzles.
If a word conforms to a special rule, I call it a Workman Word™.
Use the examples below to find the rule.
$$
% set Title text. (spaces around the text ARE important; do not remove.)
% increase Pad value only if your entries are longer than the title bar.

I believe...
They're words that can be typed on keys touching one another in a Workman keyboard layout (Pic from Wikipedia):
In contrast, all the non-Workman words don't form an unbroken line on it.
