they never promote people from/out of the workshop
Taking a slight liberty with the original, but given that this is a survey this seems to fit.
Another possibility is that "they never promote people internally", but without more context it's hard to tell.

for blue collar workers to be promoted to
Just an idea
It's impossible for blue collar employees to be promoted to white collar employees.
Blue Collar
Blue-collar workers perform labor jobs and typically work with their hands. The skills necessary for blue-collar work vary by occupation. Some blue-collar occupations require highly skilled personnel who are formally trained and certified. These workers include aircraft mechanics, plumbers, electricians and structural workers. Many blue-collar employers hire unskilled and low-skilled workers to perform simple tasks such as cleaning, maintenance and assembly line work.
White Collar
White-collar workers usually perform job duties in an office setting. They are highly skilled and formally trained professionals. Many white-collar workers, such as accountants, bankers, attorneys and real estate agents, provide professional services to clients. Other white-collar workers, such as engineers and architects, provide services to businesses, corporations and government agencies.
