A dwarf's labor preferences define the tasks that he or she will do. For instance, a dwarf with the wood cutting labor enabled will cut down trees whenever trees are designated to be cut. Essentially, a dwarf's labor preferences control what he or she can or can not do.
To change a dwarf's labor preferences, view the dwarf, then select preferences and labor.
Note that a labor is not a job. A job is the actual task of doing something, while a labor preference is simply whether a dwarf is allowed do the job or not.
Some examples of labors include wood cutting, hauling, fishing and metalsmithing.
