    Unemployment \Un`em*ploy"ment\, n.
    Quality or state of being not employed; -- used esp. in
    economics, of the condition of various social classes when
    temporarily thrown out of employment, as those engaged for
    short periods, those whose trade is decaying, and those least
    competent.

    Note: Unemployment is usually cointed as the condition of
    those who wish to work, but cannot find a suitable job,
    rather than others who may voluntarily refrain from
    working, such as retired persons, youth, or those
    remaining at home to care for young children. The

    {unemployment rate} in economics is thus the proportion of
    those actively seeking work but unable to find it, to the
    total labor force, expressed as a percentage.
