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.
Those are just the national figures; in Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey and New Hampshire, more than 60 percent of the skilled-trades labor force is 45 or older. Other Northeastern states such as Delaware, Maine and New York also have aging skilled-trades workforces, as do Illinois, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
