Difference between workers , Public workers , Employee Rest API, which one to use and when

Summary:

HI, we have a new implementation and would like to know the difference between workers and public workers Rest APIs

Is public workers API getting deprecated, we understood that employee Rest API is getting deprecated but not public workers , could you please clarify and share which one to use and when, is it ok to use both public workers and workers API as from the documentation its not very clear on the lifecycle management of both APIs.

thanks!
