Natural rate of unemployment
• Around which the economy fluctuates
• L =E + U
• u =U/L
• s: rate of job separation
• f: rate of job findings
• Steady state (neither rising nor falling): 𝑓𝑈 = 𝑠𝐸
𝑢 =𝑠
𝑠 + 𝑓

Causes of Unemployment1. Frictional unemployment unavoidable
– Searching takes time– Geographic mobility slow– Imperfect information– Sectoral shift: change in the composition of demand among industries or
regions– Unemployment insurance
2. Structural Unemployment Wage rigidity– Minimum-Wage Laws– Unions (Insiders –Outsiders) – unionization – Efficient Wages (Henry Ford)
• Cyclical unemployment exists when individuals lose their jobs as a result of a downturn in aggregate demand (AD).
• Discouraged workers (p200) Discouraged worker is counted as Not in the labor force
