Are they shunting engines or they're used in passenger traffic, too?

They should mostly be used for switching. I don't care if they're more flexible, but a road switcher should not be working long-distance passenger trains! Sorry, that's a rant for another day.

Both! mostly yard shunting, but used on passenger trains when needed.

I think they are used in passenger traffic when required but these days are mostly used for shunting.
