The document discusses the concept of employability, which refers to a set of skills, knowledge, and attributes that make an individual qualified and successful in their chosen occupation. These include fundamental skills like reading and writing, personal management skills, and teamwork skills. It emphasizes that employability depends more on attributes like attitude, knowledge, skills, and ability to learn than mere qualifications. The ideal employee has relevant knowledge and skills as well as behaviors like a desire to learn, critical thinking, communication skills, responsibility, teamwork, and honesty.
