One of the best ways to add complexity and critical thinking to your writing is to consider the point youâre making from a different perspective, and be able to answer that perspectiveâs potential objections to what youâre saying.
DEFINITION of 'Skilled Labor'. A segment of the work force with a high skill level that creates significant economic value through the work performed (human capital). Skilled labor is generally characterized by high education or expertise levels and high wages.
Skilled labor need not be manual labor, although it often involves working with your hands. Although many factory jobs are low skilled or unskilled, some involve technological know-how. These jobs may involve operating computerized machines and usually involve specialized training.
