Definition: "In classical economics and all
micro-economics labour is one of four factors of production, the others
being land, capital and enterprise. It is a measure of the work done by
human beings. There are macro-economic system theories which have created
a concept called human capital (referring to the skills that workers
possess, not necessarily their actual work), although there are also
counterposing macro-economic system theories that think human capital is a
contradiction in terms." Source:
