Application involves the ability to perform work tasks and activities defined by the requirements of the occupation. Adaptation involves the ability to react to and manage the changes in the work contexts. The result of application and adaptation leads to the production of psycho-motor actions and behavioural reactions to the work tasks/activities/issues/areas, and the execution of the planned solutions to solve problems at work.
