Friends | nealyangel2007 to grdgrd1: People are classified as unemployed if they are not currently working at a job and if they are made an effort to find a job during the past four weeks. Does this mean that there were no jobs available? Does it mean that there were jobs available for which the unemployed workers were qualified? What does this mean? Why are discouraged workers not calculated into the unemployment rate, does this skew the unemployment rate? |
