...Unemployment is the situation in which one does not have any opportunity to work and earn. An unemployed person can not earn his living. He has to depend on others . He is thought as a burden to the family or the society. So, it is regarded as a problem. Unemployment is common every where in the world. No country in the world is completely is free form it. So, Bangladesh is not exception from it. Rather, this problem is very serious in our country. Many people are badly suffering from the curse of unemployment. There are many direct or indirect causes of unemployment. They are as follows: Our country is over populated. The rate of population growth is very high. So the present job facilities can not keep pace with the growing population. Besides, our country is not developed in industries. They can absorb only a limited number of people. Again, our education system is very defective. It is traditional and depends on memorization. It does not make them self-reliant. There is less opportunity for vocational training. So, only the memorized bookish knowledge does not help them in the work field. Moreover, our students have a false sense of prestige to become officers. They hanker after only for official jobs. So they remain unemployed. Then, there is serious lack of skilled manpower. This limits the scope of jobs. We have a lot of natural resources but we can not use these properly. This also causes the problem. Lastly, many illiterate people believe in a false notion such...

Everywhere population is increasing but sources are decreasing. Our education systems creating youths who know only reading and writing. They do not learn practical skill. If a job is not available for them, they cannot start their own business. Then there is no dignity of labour. Division of money is also wrong. The rich are getting richer and poor are getting pooprer. In our country, there is lack of industries. Local industries have not been encouraged. Policy of loans is also wrong. Only the influential people can get loans. The defaulters are no severely with. The need of future is not kept in view when new policies are made. Unemployment given birth to many social evils. Its reason is that empty minds are Devil’s workshop. Unemployment people indulge in the theft, robbery, corruption, black marketing and smuggling.

...Unemployment Problem in Bangladesh Unemployment means the state of being without any work both for the educated and uneducated for earning one's livelihood. Unemployment problem has become a great concern all over the world. But nowhere in the world is this problem as acute as in Bangladesh. Thousands of people in our country are without any job. In 2010, Bangladesh’s unemployment rate was 5.1% (Source: Bangladesh Burrow of Statistics). Source: UN data, Country Profile: Bangladesh Cause of unemployment: Bangladesh, suffers from large-scale underemployment; especially in agriculture, a large part of the population could be removed without reducing agricultural output. Beyond agriculture, disguised unemployment also exists in industries, offices and organizations, particularly in the public sector. Unemployment among the educated youths is rather high in Bangladesh. The unemployment rate for the population having secondary education and above is significantly higher than those with a lower level of education. The unemployment rate for educated women is higher compared to the male population. In Bangladesh salaried employment in the formal sectors is not big enough to take care of the huge number of unemployed. Employment promotion, especially, creation of self-employment opportunities, continues to be the most important function of the Bureau of Manpower Employment and Training. The Fifth Five-Year Plan (1997-2002) had set a target of creating additional employment of 6...

Most of these people do not have jobs, and are limiting the economic potential of the community.

...growing problems. Among all problems, unemployment problem is a great one. The problem has spread its evil clutch all over the country. It is going from bad to worse. All are getting concerned with this problems. There are many cause behind it. The first and for most cause is over population. Her population is growing very rabidly. After independence, the population has been doubled. In respect of population, it is eighth largest country in the world. The country cannot provide this huge population with employment opportunities. So, many people fall into this problem. There are plenty of natural resources in our country. They are not properly used. This also create the problem. There are few mills and factories in this country. A small number of people are engaged there.Besides, every year two or three mills are closed due o economic loss. Thus the scope of employment is narrowing. Most people are illiterate. They are not involved in productive work. This another cause. Our educational system is defective. The present educational system is not fit for practical life. Professional and vocational training is absent in this system. Beside our students nourish a false sense of self dignity. They are not keen to do manual labor. Rather they like to remain unemployed . There is no distribution of national wealth. It is also responsible for the problem. Some people think that everything is predestined by God. So, there is use of try. They like remain idle.

...and social problems in advanced capitalist economies. I am from China where a communist country is. It is a trend to change the governmental structure to capitalism, because the China’s economy is progressing that provides Chinese residents with better life and personal consciousness. All of these aspects influence the development of economic and governmental construction. In the countries of capitalism, there are three economic problems that exist in the society which the paper indicates the following aspects, such as mass unemployment, income inequality and environmental decay. Unemployment means that a significant portion of the population is not being allowed to participate fully in society. Mass unemployment is the result of economic depression, and income distribution is related to labor market. In the paper cites the two problems are endemic in the capitalist economies in that they are the natural results of the interplay of market force and the drive for capital to expand itself. I think unemployment and inequality are closely related to each other. Unemployment is the reason and inequality is the outcome. If a society wants to maintain its status quo, it must provide corresponding goods and service consumed to ensure the synchronization with the market. Employee and goods have been used up in the produced process. If the procedure is failure, it results the society shrink and the reduction in the living standard. Because of this principle raises the problem of distribution...

...The Effects of Unemployment Roderick C. LaGrone COM 150 January 28, 2011 Holly McCusker The Effects of Unemployment Over the past ten years there has been a great shift in society’s employment system. Corporate America has taken major cutbacks in the working labor department that has left many citizens unemployed and destitute. Anger and concern over layoffs, wage unproductivity, declining benefits, and the movement of jobs overseas has left citizens with harsh and undesirable views of the actions and motivations of Corporate America. With the unemployment rate on a downward slope, American citizens have become distressed which has resulted in emotional, social, and, economic hardships. Even though the unemployment rate in the decline many families are still in distress because of the social and economic problems caused widespread company layoffs. Can Corporate America offer our families a better way of life ? The unemployment rate has been on a slow decline over the past few months which indicate a slow improvement in the job market. Even though the decline is a positive indication, many companies are not hiring at an alarming rate. Based on Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) the number of unemployed persons decreased by 556,000 to 14.5 million in December, and the unemployment rate dropped to 9.4 percent. Over the years, these measures were down from 15.2 million and 9.9 percent, respectively. As the economy continues to slowly recover many Americans are still trying...

...Reducing Unemployment and Underemployment in the United States Name Institutional Affiliation Reducing Unemployment and Underemployment in the United States Reducing Unemployment Unemployment and underemployment are one of the main economic concern in many countries or states in the world today. It is a biting problem in many economies, and governments are always seeking a new way of solving this problem (Miller, 2011, p. 14) According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, unemployment is a situation where a person does not have a job, but have actively searched in the past four weeks (American Vocational Association, 2008, p. 24). It also includes people who have been laid off for more than seven days. There are many reasons why people end up being unemployed. Understanding the reasons for unemployment is essential in coming up with a solution to the high rate of unemployment in the United States. The most important causes of unemployment are structural, cyclical and seasonal unemployment (Borts, 2010, p. 28). The United States has experienced approximately 11 recessions since 1948 when the postwar ended. The different government regimes have tried various methods over the years to turn around recessions and reduce the high rates of unemployment. Some government regimes have embarked on tax while others have embarked on stimulus spending. Unemployment rate in America remained high at 7.6 % in June 2013 (Clague, 2009,...

...Theory of employment and unemployment 1.1. Concepts and forms of employment 1.2. Indicators, types and causes of unemployment 1.3. Socio-economic consequences of unemployment 1.4. State regulation of employment CONCLUSION REFERENCES INTRODUCTION The main thing in life is to have his job, so job loss - a serious problem in the life of an adult.

Thus, the loss of a job not only leads to a reduction of the current material standard of living, but also to the emergence of uncertainty about the future, as well as feelings of worthlessness causes serious psychological trauma. Therefore, one can hardly call the country a developed and civilized unless its citizens and each citizen in particular, are unable to support themselves and be useful in society.

...Research proposal Title: The role of cobblestone on youth unemployment reduction in Adigrat city by -Amanuel Teklu Aregawi teklu Dawit Hagos Berihu Gebremeskel Adigrat UniversityCollege of Business and Economics Department of Management/ MBA 1.INTRODUCTION Cobblestones are small, chiseled rectangular stones formerly used to cover road surfaces ,typically either set in sand or similar selected material, or are bound together with mortar. Paving with cobblestones allows a road to be heavily used all year long and not getting muddy in wet weather or dusty in dry weather. Cobblestones set in sand have the environmental advantage of being permeable paving, and of moving rather than cracking with movements in the ground. INTRODUCTION con’t It was in early 2005 that the concept of using cobblestones to construct roads was first introduced to Ethiopia. Faced with fast-growing cities, inadequate urban infrastructure, and a large youthful population in need of employment, the Ethiopian Government turned to an innovative solution: Cobblestone road production throughout the country, driven by community participation and local materials. In recent years, cobblestone road creation has become one of the most successful infrastructure and job creation programmes in the country, with tremendous benefits for the urban poor. It has created hundreds of thousands of jobs, greatly improved urban mobility, and built collaborative relationships between communities and local...

...labor market stays in equilibrium, with no demand deficient or real-wage unemployment, there are numbers of unemployed people. That phenomenon is called a natural unemployment. By using structural unemployment as our economic concept, we are going to see how a change in the structure of economy could cause a natural unemployment. Recently, Turkey’s unemployment rate rose from 10.9 percent in December of 2014 to 11.3 percent in January of 2015. Slow pace of gross domestic production expansion had caused expansion in the workforce. As a result 300,000 people that worked in agriculture and construction sectors lost their jobs. Unemployment is a situation in economy when people who are willing and able to work can’t get a job....
