Introduction to Employment (hereinafter, the Lecture) is a lecture introducing the learners to employment and related topics. The Lecture is the second of eight lectures of WorldOpp Orientation (hereinafter, the Orientation).


Outline

Welcome to Friends Of CNM is the predecessor lecture.

  1. Employment. In the workspace, employment is an agreement between an employer, who agrees to compensate an employee in exchange for his or her work time, and an employee, who agrees to follow the employer's directions during work hours in exchange for the employer's compensation, as well as a process and/or result of that exchange.
    • Employee. A person employed for wages or salary, especially, but not necessarily, at non-executive level.
    • Independent contractor. An individual or another legal entity that provides goods or services to another entity under terms specified in a contract or within a verbal agreement. Unlike an employee, an independent contractor does not work regularly for an employer, but works as and when required, during which time he or she may be subject to law of agency. Independent contractors are usually paid on a freelance basis. Contractors often work through a limited company or franchise, which they themselves own, or may work through an umbrella organization.
    • Self-employment. The state of working for oneself as a freelance or the owner of a business rather than for an employer.
  2. Occupational nature. Preferences for work environments and outcomes in occupations.
    • Earth occupation (realistic occupation). An occupation that frequently involves work activities that include practical, hands-on problems and solutions. They often deal with plants, animals, and real-world materials like wood, tools, and machinery. Many of the occupations require working outside, and do not involve a lot of paperwork or working closely with others.
    • Investigative occupation. An occupation that frequently involves working with ideas and requires an extensive amount of thinking. These occupations can involve searching for facts and figuring out problems mentally.
    • Artistic occupation. An occupation that frequently involves working with forms, designs and patterns. They often require self-expression and the work can be done without following a clear set of rules.
    • Social occupation. An occupation that frequently involves working with, communicating with, and teaching people. These occupations often involve helping or providing service to others.
    • Enterprising occupation. An occupation that frequently involves starting up and carrying out projects. These occupations can involve leading people and making many decisions. Sometimes they require risk taking and often deal with business.
    • Conventional occupation. An occupation that frequently involves following set procedures and routines. These occupations can include working with data and details more than with ideas. Usually there is a clear line of authority to follow.
  3. Work structure. A set of structural job characteristics with which the worker interacts.

Introduction to Recruitment is the successor lecture.
