Employability skills are generic skills which we all use in the workplace. These skills can be transferred from one workplace to another and one job role to another.

The employability skills are based on:

Fundamental skills of literacy and numeracy and using technology People-related skills – communication, teamwork, interpersonal, customer service skills Conceptual/thinking skills – collecting and organising information, problem solving Personal skills and attributes – being responsible, resourceful and flexible, time management skills, Business skills – enterprise skills, innovation Community skills – civic or citizenship knowledge and skills

Employability skills evolved from the Mayer Key Competencies which identified guiding principles for effective participation in the workplace. An employability skills framework was developed in consultation with industry and describes the facets of the eight employability skills.
