Sometimes unemployment is a result of advanced technology, such as computers or robots, which replaces worker tasks with machines. If the workers are not retrained, they may not have the skills needed to get a new job. This is known as structural unemployment.
Unemployment can also be caused by job outsourcing, when a company moves its manufacturing or call centers to another country where labor costs are cheaper. This occurred in many states after NAFTA was signed in 1994. It was also caused when workers in China and India gained the skills needed by American companies.
Large scale unemployment is caused when consumer demand slows enough that businesses lose too much profit. If they don't expect sales to pick up anytime soon, they then must lay off workers. This usually happens during the recession phase of the business cycle.
However, unemployment from the financial crisis of 2008 just won't let up. What caused it? Was it Wall Street bankers? An auto industry that didn't remain competitive? Government economic policy? Did anyone you know cause their own unemployment by staying in a job they didn't love? What do you think? Share Your Opinion

unemployed young adults
- A recent study discovered that, in the last decade, the debt rate has decreased dramatically for American young adults. While that sounds encouraging on the surface, in reality it reveals a troubling financial pattern. The reason for the drop is that the bulk of young adults just have too few assets and too little income to get substantial credit. Article source: visit currently located at some of our webpage.

Education systems
- Because of recession and high levels of inflation most companies are forced to fire the young/new employees who doesn’t have the experience or skills as the more experienced workers. Companies are forced to downsize because of the high level of inflation. Inflation causes less business and thus they can’t afford all the employees The fact that a degree does not promise skills and experience also cause high unemployment. The employer doesn’t just want someone with theory in the subject but someone with practical experience. Education systems are to theory based. Overpopulation and lack of skilled workers also contribute to unemployment
