skills workers have and the skills

fires machinery workers and
replaces them with robot

because of the seasonal character of a
particular productive activity so that people
become unemployed during the slack season.

unemployment
Frictional Unemployment exists when
people are temporarily out of work .

In other words, the period in which a


person quit from one job and to find the
other one is called period of frictional
unemployment .

It occurs due immobility of labor, shortage


of material, shortage of machinery and
equipment etc.

Syclical
unemployment
In this case unemployment takes place in
the depression or recession phase of the
business cycle is called cyclical
unemployment.

It's caused by the contraction phase of the


business cycle.

That's when demand for goods and


services fall dramatically, forcing
businesses to lay off large numbers of
workers to cut costs. Cyclical
unemployment tends to create more

Concept of Labor
ForceLabor Force
The number of people who are above 15 Or 16
years of age (employed plus unemployed) are
called as labor force.

Labor Force = employed + unemployed

▷ Not in Labor Force

A person who is not looking for a job


because he or she does not want to do a job.
18
The Labour force
participation
The labour force participation rate is the ratio of labour force to
the population (age of 16 or above). This basically shows the
portion of population that is contributing to labour force.

Labor force participation = (Labor force/Population


above 16) X 100.

19
How to calculate
unemployment Rate?
The unemployment rate is ratio of the number of people
unemployed to the total number of people in the labor force.

Unemployment rate = (Unemployed / labor Force) X 100

Example:
If the labor force is 15 million and 3mn are unemployed
then the unemployment rate is;(3/15) X 100 = 20%
