This HR (human resource management) term has one related and usually confusing term, \u2018to upskill\u2019.<br \/>\nWhile \u2018upskilling\u2019 means learning new skills in a general way, \u2018reskilling\u2019 refers more specifically to learning new skills for doing a different job from the regular one.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;9841&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<span class=\"text_exposed_show\"><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\">in labor<\/span> \u2013 Besides its meaning as work, the term \u2018labor\u2019 is also associated with the fatigue and painful job of childbirth.
