Work
Task, Operation
noun, verbal noun
If you want to make a business successful you need to be prepared to do a lot of work. Be ready to handle many tasks and operations!
作業 often focuses on individual, hands-on tasks that are undertaken to accomplish a specific objective.
This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. Since 作 has two on'yomi readings, here's a mnemonic to help you remember which one to use:
