These data allow her to establish the link between skills and low-skilled jobs and to reveal the current state of the labor market facing low-skilled workers. The data also highlights the knowledge and skills that employers require in low-skilled jobs and the abilities that individuals who apply for those jobs bring to the table.Orking Life working lifeLabor marketUnskilled laborLabor market.Unskilled labor.331.1Maxwell Nan L.1150820NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910524890603321The Working Life2997013UNINA
