Jobs and unemployment overview draft Unemployment occurs where workers who are interested in finding jobs are unable t find jobs. Anghel’s article on “The effect of unemployment on economic growth” and Garz’s “Effects of unemployment on economic growth” are two articles that signify the various impacts that unemployment may have on the economy.
