Question

multiple choice question
which of the following people definitely would be classified as unemployed by the bureau of labor statistics?
a full - time student who is not looking for work
someone who worked part - time last week and was actively looking for another job
someone who didnt work during the last week
someone who didnt work during the last week and who interviewed for a job two weeks ago

Explanation:

To be classified as unemployed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a person must be without work, available for work, and have actively looked for work in the prior 4 - week period. A full - time student not looking for work is not in the labor force. Someone who worked part - time is employed. Just not working last week isn't enough. The person who didn't work last week and interviewed for a job two weeks ago hasn't actively looked for work in the prior 4 - week period.

Answer:

None of the above options are definitely classified as unemployed.
