A quick definition of skilled work:

Skilled work is a type of job that requires a lot of knowledge and practice. It's different from unskilled work, which is easier and doesn't need as much training. Skilled workers use their brains and their hands to do things like fixing cars, building houses, or cooking fancy meals. They have special skills that they've learned over time, and they're really good at what they do. Skilled work is important because it helps us get things done that we couldn't do on our own.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Skilled work refers to work that requires specialized knowledge, training, or experience to perform effectively. It involves using judgment, dealing with the public, analyzing facts and figures, or working with abstract ideas at a high level of complexity.

Examples:

  • A surgeon performing a complex surgery
  • A software engineer developing a new program
  • A carpenter building custom furniture

These examples illustrate skilled work because they require specialized knowledge and training to perform effectively. They involve complex tasks that cannot be easily learned on the job and require a high level of expertise to complete successfully.
