Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Discouraged workers are those who have stopped looking for work because they believe that there are no jobs available for them. They are not actively seeking employment, but they have looked for work in the past 12 months. This group is not included in the official unemployment rate but may be counted in other measures of underemployment.
