Hi Members,

I am working in the garment industry, and we cater to various brands of UK and US clients.

Question: Is training tailors considered in the semi-skilled category or the unskilled category? Kindly suggest.

A person who can do a certain work requiring a skill (meaning not just anyone without experience or expertise can do that task), then if the person can work independently without supervision and constant review, he is considered skilled. A person who needs to be supervised and needs guidance and review is semi-skilled.

If the trainees are completely raw and are being taught to stitch, then they would be unskilled. Otherwise, mostly they are semi-skilled.

Word "TAILOR" itself specifies the skill of an employee. Training for tailors should be provided to those who are either helpers or beginners. It is better to categorize them as unskilled until the completion of the course. After completing the training, they should be categorized as semi-skilled until they complete their probation or training period.

Dear colleague,

Please clarify whether you are referring to the person who is going to train the tailors or the tailors being trained by him. Obviously, any trainer is a professional person and does not fall into the skill category of workers.
