Answer: Derived demand (indirect demand)

Concept: When the demand for a good or factor arises because of the demand for another good, it is called derived or indirect demand.

Explanation: Labour does not satisfy a want directly here. The demand for mask-producing labour increased because the demand for masks increased. Hence it is derived demand. Demand for all factors of production is derived demand.
