High Unemployment
High unemployment levels can result from an economic crisis in action or can
be one of the causes of it. An economic crisis can occur when high interest
rates, tight lending and a decrease in consumer spending results in
companies letting go of employees to survive the economic downturn. This
turns into a nasty downward spiral as unemployed consumers do not spend
freely, impacting businesses further and leading to more layoffs. Increasing
unemployment can also be found when companies outsource jobs to other
countries. This type of unemployment is more permanent in nature and can
lead to longer-term economic instability.
Natural Disaster
An environmental crisis can also spark an economic crisis. Hurricanes,
widespread flooding, insect infestations and crop diseases can impact the
food we eat and the prices we pay at the grocery store. Rising food prices can
impact consumer spending habits and begin the downward cycle that reduces
business income and results in unemployment.
