Abstract
Th is study, using direct observation and measurement techniques, analyzed the occupational skills
of these two groups. The results showed that the employed adults performed significantly better on each of the thirteen job-related skills involved in the occupational skills assessment . These differences were found consistent across job-finding and job-retention skills. These findings
suggest that an important role for employment counselors might be to teach the skills involved in finding and retaining employment to unemployed persons.
