Research
I.
Introduction
Unemployment
is one of the major problems prevailing in Third-world countries like the
Philippines. These problem have a serious effect not only on the socio-economic
status of a country, but it can lead to other problems such as poverty and
crime. What are the factors behind the Socio-economic growth of jobless people?

Interview (Interviewee- Secondary Teacher)
1.
What do you think are the factors behind
the Socio-economic growth of jobless people?
Lack of education, no job opportunities, need
for higher daily minimum wage and laziness.
2.
How can lack of education affect the
unemployment rate?
Because without proper education, people will
have no idea about jobs. Some establishments also require high-school diplomas
and degrees to hire workers.
3.
Why are there little to no job
opportunities in the rural areas like here in Dalaguete?
There are not much establishments and
factories in the area where people can apply for jobs hence unemployment.
4.
Why is there a need for higher daily
minimum wage in order to decrease unemployment rate?
The prices for the daily needs and wants are
constantly getting higher and the minimum wage is not sufficient enough. If there
will be an increase, more people will be encouraged to work because of higher
wages.
5.
What does laziness involve in
unemployment?
Simply because if a person is lazy to work, he
will not have a job so there will be unemployment.
6.
What are your opinions about
unemployment?
It is a cancer in the society, it should be
the first thing to be solved by the government or any president.

i.
Technological Advances- Innovation
and technological advances may perform the work twice faster than human labor
so it may reduce the number of employees needed to perform certain tasks hence
the rise of job losses.
ii.
Economic Downturn- If a large number of industries are
affected by poor economic conditions, thousands of workers may be terminated
within a short period of time, causing a spike in the unemployment rate.
iii.
No Job Creation- If limited job growth lingers for an
extended period, the number of unemployed workers gradually increases,
resulting in a relatively slow but steady increase in the unemployment rate.
iv.
Catastrophic Event- A catastrophic event that affects one
or more industries can cause reduced revenues and subsequently lead to
unemployment.

Summary
In
conclusion to my research, there are certain factors that affect the
socioeconomic growth of jobless people. It can be minor factors such as lack of education, no job
opportunities, need for higher daily minimum wage and laziness. I can also be
because of other factors such as Technological Advances, Economic Downturn, No
Job Creation and Catastrophic Event. Unemployment and poverty goes side by side
so the government should take steps to reduce unemployment rate for the
betterment of our socio-economics.
