Abstract: The changing nature of public employment policy, with increasing emphasis being given to skills-based solutions to economic competition, and work-based solutions to social deprivation have driven the recent interest. In order to gain better skills and to have better employment security, training is an important step to both employees and employer. Training is essential in today’s competitive labor market. This is due to the demand for skilled workers which far exceeds the supply. In addition to employing professional and technical skilled people, employers have invested a lot on training to enhance the employees skill as this group is a huge contributor to the organizations growth. Employees will be able to attain employment security only if they manage to master necessary and critical skills which is the main concern of employers and the organization on thus current fast moving economy and business environment .Although there are many labor laws and employment acts to provide a certain relief from the risk of unemployment, employees will still need to enhance themselves with multi skills and knowledge as these legislations will only protect the employees from unemployment at a minimal level.
