    Bab : Employability skills: balancing the equation


    Employability skills as skills, knowledge, and competencies that enhance one's ability to
    get and keep a job, develop in the workplace and can face change, get another job. Employability
    skills are required by human resources at all career levels in the world of work. Thus, workers
    can always work effectively and efficiently.

    The Employability Skills Framework

     Communication skills that contribute to a productive and harmonious relationship


    between professional colleagues and their customers;
     Teamwork skills that will contribute to productive work relationships and outcomes;
     Problem-solving skills that contribute to producing productive outputs;
     Initiation skills and entrepreneurship (initiative and enterprise skills) that contribute to
    innovative output;
     Skills in planning and organizing that contribute to short-term and long-term strategic
    planning;
     Skills in self-management skills that contribute to the growth and self-satisfaction of the
    profession;
     Learning skills that contribute to the continuous improvement / improvement and
    expansion of outputs (outcomes) and the expansion of the organization's personnel and
    operations; and
     Skills using technology that contribute to effective and efficient task execution.

    Key changes to the skill development debate

    Changing work demands, Nowadays, competition to get a tighter job, workers are demanded
    for competition in all fields, mastering all things, and have extensive experience, Changing
    work environments , There is a lot of criticism about the types and levels of skills needed by
    workers in the context of this new job. there is even data to suggest that often not the level of
    mechanical skills is increasing and in many samples, the concrete skill level for technical work is
    diminished. And Changing individual needs within new employment contexts, It is highly
    unlikely that someone will live and grow in one organization. therefore it requires people to find
    work and change to new contexts.

    Training issues, employability skills are modules that exist without the application context in
    the job. The trainer who is the best teacher in technical competence may be a standard of poor
    work skills. Those who can control others in the behavior required by modern workers may not
    be identified by their abilities.
    Current strategies in training packages

    The Mayer key competencies, this is useful for defining the character of work skills and is a
    useful model in a number of current training units. Dedicated units, That unit is specifically
    concentrated on the work skills function commonly including all management. Embedding in
    units, This unit functions to combine work skills with technical or work functions, for example,
    'making advertisements'. this technique is very useful for teaching and assessing skills and this
    method is often chosen for the training unit and is considered relevant. And References in units,
    This model is useful for incorporating work skills into the training package by including
    references to skills in performance criteria or in the underlying skills and knowledge, or even in
    the evidence guide.

    Bab : The development of employability skills in novice workers through


    employment
    Many companies now prefer to hire novice workers because they still have strong
    physical stamina, tend to think positively and have a great enthusiasm for work. Novice workers
    also have positive impacts such as having a great willingness to learn, develop a career. although
    on the other hand also found the opposite effects such as difficult to adjust to a new environment,
    unstable, ashamed to start a thing, it tends to be difficult to ask if not sure, although some of the
    above are negative impacts, but it can be balanced with other positive impacts.

    A lot of assumptions about work skills that are most important for the novice worker in
    the company vary throughout the discussion and also in the discussion among various groups of
    workers. However, there is a clear opinion that teamwork and communication are the most
    valued work skills, reliability, a sense of humor and enthusiasm are the attributes most often
    valued.

    The process by which organizations develop work skills, including the induction of
    formal processes, in this process there are several approaches namely induction, buddying,
    valuing training, allocating increasing responsibility and task rotation.

    The following are informal techniques to encourage the development of employability


    skills, such as Encouraging and giving praise one to one, Talking and making conversation in an
    effort to make novice workers feel comfortable, Introducing them to the group, Showing respect,
    Showing concern and empathy, Setting clear limits, Working alongside novice workers and
    doing the same jobs, Socialising to share experiences, Modelling correct behaviour and setting a
    good example, and Using humour

    Novice workers themselves start working to learn work skills by using various
    approaches to develop their own work skills which are mainly based on proactive
    communication. They ask questions, practice active listening, look for staff who are more helpful
    as mentors, develop work relationships with managers and get along socially with other staff.
    They also try to make a good impression, smile a lot, appear to work early, ask for additional
    assignments, seek feedback, and learn when to offer advice and when to be quiet.

    They develop systems to organize their work and take advantage of outside training
    opportunities. Novice workers who do not keep their jobs or do not develop in their jobs are
    those who fail to prioritize work over home life, and workers who are afraid to ask questions for
    fear of looking foolish. The consequences of not asking questions are always far worse than the
    consequences of asking questions.

    There is plenty of evidence from studies that show that employers recognize that they will
    benefit if they encourage the development of work skills in their beginner workers. Making
    beginner workers more effective more quickly will lead to increased profits through higher
    productivity and fewer mistakes. There will be a more pleasant work environment, less disputes,
    less absenteeism and lower labor turnover. A good program for novice workers will build a good
    reputation for the organization, attract further, quality workers, beginners. Better beginner
    workers might be retained for mid-term careers and even long-term careers in management. and
    the evidence shows that there is a lot of satisfaction from employers who recruit novice workers
    in their workplaces.

    Although employability skills can be developed through various activities and in various
    locations, there are reasons why the workplace is suitable, and even the location is very
    important for its development. Work skills are developed throughout one's working life and
    hence employers need to see the process of developing work skills as a whole-workforce
    problem. Good practices for new workers must be accompanied by good practices for all
    workers. The variety of work skills possessed by young workers starting their first job varies
    greatly. Some may have well-developed skills and others, sometimes through no fault of their
    own, are less developed. Employers need to be prepared for the full range, especially when they
    are recruiting younger teenagers and in a tight labor market where they can carefully select them.
