Answer:

Collective Noun

Step-by-step explanation:

If you were referring to "The staff" then this would be a collective noun.

A collective noun refers to a group of things or people, or a group that consist of multiple members that are taken as a whole. Other examples of collective nouns would be words like, faculty, organization, flock, troupe, collection.

It is any noun that represents a group of more than one member.
