employment and unemployment
The increase in duration of unemployment is mainly due to the fact of jobs not being available. If 5 workers are applying for every available job, unemployment continues until the number of jobs can match the number of applicants. Some people receiving benefits may choose to collect instead of working, but even they are required to continue looking for full time employment. The benefits merely help the searchers survive until they find employment.
Unemployment is where a person is not employed and is not making money by working. Employment is where a person works and makes money.
There is no cyclical unemployment.
