Even though they are technically working, part-time workers are classified as "underemployed" (because they want full-time jobs but have to settle for partial work) and thus are not part of the recognized "workforce" as are not also those in the military, under 16 years of age, in institutions (i.e. incarcerated, in hospitals, in school, etc.), etc.

Divide the number of unemployed by the number of people in the labor force then multiply by 100. Ex. Labor force: 130.5 Million Unemployed: 7.2 Million 7.2/130.5 X 100 = 5.5% 100 X (number unemployed) / (number unemployed + number employed) You can go to the Related Link below for one answer. There are several methods used to calculate the rate of unemployment (see the Related Link below). The most common one is: Unemployment Rate = 'Unemployed Workers' divided by 'Total Labor Force'.
