Which are the main reasons for increase in unemployment? |
|
Answer» People who are 18 years or above and cannot find work in spite of searching for a job come under the category of ‘unemployed’. The main reasons for increase in unemployment are as under : 1. Introduction of technology in modern times has led to the burning problem of unemployment. For e.g. the use of computers has made work faster and more accurate and machines have replaced human beings thus increasing unemployment. 2. Mechanization in agriculture has left many agricultural labourers unemployed. Such people migrate to the cities in search of work. So villages disintegrate and urban problems increase. 3. Education has increased and expanded its horizons but employment opportunities have not increased at the same rate. So the number of educated unemployed has increased. |
