Globalisation has penetrated all areas of contemporary society, and higher education (HE) is no exception. Universities worldwide are under pressure to seek ways to compete globally and identify what elements they should adjust or create and how. This paper discusses employability; i.e., the skills and capabilities required by human resources for the future sustainable global society. It first compares the three eras of globalisation, the expansion of trade/territorial space, that of cyber/(e)-financial space, and emerging third era, 'sustainable globalisation.' It then presents the human resources / employability skills necessary to realise sustainable globalisation, emphasising the necessity of the participation of young individuals in creating new work models. The paper will close by discussing the future issues for HE, industry, government and community in ensuring the sustainable society and nature.
