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.
As a result, the United States has seen a greater demand for education. Unskilled labor, when measured by educational attainment, refers to jobs that require a high school diploma only, or could even be filled by a high school dropout. Skilled labor requires additional skills or education.
