                     EDUCATED UNEMPLOYMENT

 

Introduction

Unemployment occurs when a person who is actively searching for employment is unable to find job. It signals the inability of workers to readily obtain gainful work to contribute to productive output of the economy. Unemployment is often used as a measure of the health of the economy. Types of unemployment includes cyclical, frictional, seasonal, educated, technical, disguised, structural unemployment etc.

 

Meaning

Educated unemployment is a situation which arises when a large number of educated people are jobless or unable to secure a job. Educated unemployment is the situation in which the people who are capable of working and willing to work do not get employment. Educated unemployment is unemployment among people with an academic degree. It is also called as graduate unemployment.

 

Causes

1.     Economic Conditions

Economic condition is one of the main factors. Once a company fails to pay its employees then there is no choice for the employees rather than to leave the job.

2.     Lack of Skill

Despite large number of educated young, there is shortage of skilled manpower.

3.     Technological Growth

   Technology inclusion is a must for the growth of the economy and at the    same time it reduces the chance of job opportunities.

4.     Population and Migration

Uncontrolled population growth and migration of foreign job seekers could also be counted as a cause of unemployment.
