7.8% in 2008
To calculate the unemployment rate, divide the number of unemployed individuals by the total labor force and multiply by 100. If 9 million people are unemployed and the total labor force is, for example, 150 million, the unemployment rate would be 6%.
California has the most people unemployed of all 50 states in the USA. There are approximately 4,023,428 people unemployed, which is a 10.8% unemployment rate. This was researched in July 2012 by using official government websites and the US census website.
According to the CIA World Factbook (as of 11/3/10), Sweden has a population of 9,974,055 (7/10 est.), of which 4.91 million (54%) are in the work force. Their unemployment rate is 8.3%, which means approximately 407,500 are unemployed.
According to the BLS, as of Sept. 2010. Vermont had an unemployment rate of 5.8%. See the Related Link below for more information.
As of August 2021, the Office for National Statistics reported that 10,000 people were unemployed in Leicester. The unemployment rate in Leicester was around 7.7% at that time.
The unemployment rate of Europe is about 10%, totaling to about 75,000,000 unemployed Europeans.
You need to divide the unemployed by the TOTAL number of people (employed + unemployed). Then you can convert that number into a percentage.
the female literacy rate in Hungary is75%
To calculate the unemployment rate, divide the number of unemployed individuals by the total labor force and multiply by 100. If 9 million people are unemployed and the total labor force is, for example, 150 million, the unemployment rate would be 6%.
The literacy rate in Hungary is over 99%, making it one of the highest in the world. This high rate is due to the country's strong emphasis on education and public literacy programs.
the percentage of the total labor force that is unemployed
The "Unemployed" rate would be 12 million / 260 million = 12/260 = 4.6 %. In fact the unemployed rate does not use the whole population as a denominator, but a smaller value. The part of the population that, for whatever reason, is currently unemployable - such as children, retired people, terminally ill people - are excluded from the equation.
The greater the unemployment benefits, the longer one will stay unemployed. This may also increase the number of people that will become unemployed; thereby increasing the unemployment rate.

Yes. Just means that people are replacing others, so for every one unemployed, one is employed.Another answer:No. In the above case, the status (rate) would stay the same as 1 merely replaces the other, but the ratio of unemployed to the total available work force remains the same. For example, if you have 50 unemployed and 50 employed workers, the unemployment rate is 50%. 51 unemployed and 51 employed is still 50%. Adding one more worker (i.e. just graduated from school), and you still have 50 unemployed, but now there is 51 employed. The rate now changes from 50% unemployed to 49.5% unemployed, so the unemployment RATE decreased by adding the one employed person. You CAN have unemployed NUMBERS, but not rate, increase at the same time as the employed NUMBERS increase, however.
