As industries evolve rapidly, employers’ expectations of blue-collar workers have changed significantly. Now more than ever, employers value employees with technical skills, strong interpersonal abilities and adaptability rather than physical strength alone. For young workers striving to meet these new expectations, developing essential skills is crucial. Here’s an outline of what matters and how to prepare.
Industries such as hospitality, retail, manufacturing and warehousing increasingly depend on workers who possess the technical knowledge necessary to operate machinery, utilise computers and adhere to safety protocols. Basic technical skills are essential for effective job performance. Young workers might consider engaging in vocational training programmes or on-the-job training offered by various companies. Gaining industry-specific knowledge of equipment and safety procedures can enhance job prospects and potentially lead to career advancement opportunities.

Sujay Pidara, Founder, MyJobee, said, "The initiatives announced in the budget for employment creation and skill development are crucial and beneficial. The focus on first-time employees with incentives for EPFO and substantial support for job creation will connect both skilled and unskilled workers with meaningful employment opportunities. Furthermore, the commitment to upskilling 20 lakh youth over five years through upgraded Industrial Training Institutes is a much-needed strategy. Such initiatives promise to not only boost economic growth but also ensure inclusive development by equipping youth with the necessary skills for a sustainable and self-sufficient future.”
While budget 2024 certainly emphasises job creation, the government has launched various initiatives to boost women's participation in the workforce. These efforts reflect a commitment to advancing women's roles in economic development. By establishing working women hostels in collaboration with industries, developing creches, and organising skill training programs for women, the government aims to foster women-led advancement.
