The document discusses different types and measurements of unemployment. It describes seasonal, frictional, structural, and cyclical unemployment. It also discusses how unemployment is measured using the claimant count and labour force survey. Unemployment trends in the UK since 1990 are presented, showing the impacts of recessions. Policies to reduce unemployment through demand-side and supply-side approaches are outlined.
This document discusses unemployment and inflation. It defines unemployment and discusses how unemployment rates can be manipulated. It also discusses the labor force survey used in Europe. It then discusses different types of unemployment including frictional, structural, and cyclical unemployment. The document also discusses the relationship between unemployment and inflation, including the Phillips curve and the natural rate of unemployment. It discusses criticisms of the relationship between inflation and unemployment and costs of both unemployment and inflation.
This document provides an introduction to macroeconomics by outlining key topics and issues addressed in macroeconomics. It discusses what macroeconomics studies, including long-run economic growth, business cycles, unemployment, inflation, and the effects of international trade. It also examines macroeconomic theories like classical and Keynesian approaches. Government macroeconomic policies, including fiscal and monetary policies, are introduced as tools that can potentially influence economic performance.
This document discusses different types of unemployment including frictional, seasonal, cyclical, structural, and disguised unemployment. It also discusses underemployment and defines unemployment rate, labor force participation rate, and discouraged workers. Additionally, it covers the relationship between unemployment and inflation including the short-run and long-run Phillips curves. Expected inflation rate is identified as a key factor that can shift the short-run Phillips curve. The natural rate hypothesis and need for disinflation policies if unemployment is kept below the natural rate for too long are also summarized.
The document discusses the costs and measurement of unemployment and inflation. It defines key terms like unemployment rate, labor force participation rate, and sources of unemployment like frictional and cyclical. It also defines inflation and discusses how inflation is measured. Higher than expected inflation creates winners and losers while making long term planning more difficult.
This document provides an overview of unemployment and related economic concepts. It defines unemployment as when a person is available and willing to work but remains unhired. Several types of unemployment are described, including frictional, structural, seasonal, cyclical, classical, technological, and hidden unemployment. Ways to overcome different types of unemployment are outlined, such as retraining workers, increasing demand, and making labor markets more flexible. Finally, the economic costs of unemployment are mentioned, such as costs to individuals, families, local economies, and the overall economy when unemployment rates are high.

This document discusses macroeconomic concepts including GDP, business cycles, economic growth, and technological progress. It explains that GDP measures the value of final goods and services produced, and economists use GDP and real GDP per capita to analyze economic performance and standards of living. The business cycle consists of expansion, peak, contraction and trough phases influenced by investment, interest rates, expectations and external shocks. Economic growth results from capital deepening, savings, population changes, government policies, and technological advances driven by factors like research, innovation, and education.

The document discusses different types of unemployment including frictional, seasonal, and structural unemployment. It explains the causes of unemployment including real wage unemployment caused by wages being above the market clearing level, as well as demand deficient unemployment caused by low aggregate demand. The document analyzes potential solutions to different types of unemployment, including both demand-side policies like fiscal and monetary stimulus as well as supply-side policies to increase occupational mobility and workforce training.

This document provides an introduction to macroeconomics. It defines macroeconomics as the study of national economies and the policies that governments use to affect economic performance. It discusses key issues macroeconomists address such as economic growth, business cycles, unemployment, inflation, international trade, and macroeconomic policies. It also outlines different macroeconomic theories including classical, Keynesian, and unified approaches.
Unemployment is caused by factors like being between jobs, industries shutting down, skills not matching available jobs, and economic downturns. There are four main types of unemployment: frictional, seasonal, structural, and cyclical. Structural unemployment occurs when workers' skills do not match job requirements, which can be due to technological changes, resource discoveries, consumer demand shifts, globalization, or lack of education. The government tracks unemployment statistics through surveys.
Inflation is a general increase in prices caused by factors like increased money supply, changes in demand or supply. It is measured using price indexes like the Consumer Price Index. High inflation erodes purchasing power and can harm those on fixed incomes.

Macroeconomics deals with the economy as a whole, examining aggregates like total income, output, employment and prices. It emerged as a separate field of study due to Keynes' analysis of the Great Depression when existing theories failed to explain high unemployment. The circular flow model illustrates how income and spending circulate between producers and consumers in an economy.
Macroeconomics deals with the aggregate or total level of key economic variables for an entire economy, such as output, consumption, investment, employment, and prices. It examines unemployment, inflation, and output growth. The document provides definitions and explanations of these macroeconomic concepts as well as the scope and importance of macroeconomics in understanding national economies and formulating policy.
Macroeconomics analyzes aggregate economic variables such as total output, investment, exports and the average price level rather than individual markets. It considers how these aggregates result from the activities and decisions of consumers, government and firms. The document defines key macroeconomic concepts including gross domestic product, inflation, unemployment, economic models, and the business cycle. It explains that unemployment and inflation tend to vary over the course of the business cycle, with unemployment a greater problem during contractions and inflation a greater problem during expansions.
- Macroeconomics deals with aggregate economic indicators such as output, consumption, employment, investment and price levels of an entire economy. It analyzes performance, structure and decision-making of national, regional and global economies.
- Three major macroeconomic concerns are unemployment, inflation and output growth. Unemployment refers to those without work, inflation is a sustained increase in price levels, and output growth is changes in economic activity and development.
- Macroeconomics is important for understanding how the whole economy works, evaluating overall performance through national income, analyzing causes of economic issues, and understanding individual economic unit behavior in context of aggregates.
This document provides an overview of macroeconomics and its key concepts. It begins by defining macroeconomics as the study of the overall behavior of an economy, including output, employment, prices, and trade. It then lists common questions that macroeconomics seeks to answer, such as what determines economic activity and employment levels. The document continues by explaining why macroeconomic theory is important to study and provides a brief history of developments in the field from classical to Keynesian to modern macroeconomics. It also defines common macroeconomic terms like stock and flow variables.
This document discusses unemployment, including its types, causes, and rates in Pakistan. It begins with an introduction to the topic and overview of seasonal, cyclical, structural, and frictional unemployment. Specific causes of unemployment in Pakistan are then outlined, such as population growth, education issues, and energy crises. The unemployment rate in Pakistan is cited to be around 6%. The document concludes with solutions to reducing unemployment in Pakistan through improved planning, education, skills training, and encouraging investment.
The document discusses the classical theory of inflation and how it relates to money supply. It states that inflation is defined as a rise in the overall price level in an economy. The quantity theory of money explains that inflation is primarily caused by increases in the money supply as controlled by the central bank. When the money supply grows faster than the amount of goods and services, it leads to too much money chasing too few goods and a rise in prices, or inflation. The document also notes that hyperinflation, which is a very high rate of inflation, can occur when governments print too much money to fund spending.
This document discusses various topics related to unemployment, including:
- Defining and measuring unemployment using methods like the claimant count and labor force survey.
- Different types of unemployment like frictional, structural and cyclical unemployment.
- Consequences of unemployment for individuals, businesses, and the economy as a whole like lower incomes and GDP.
- Policies to reduce unemployment through demand-side measures like tax cuts and supply-side policies like education and training.
- Recent trends showing falling unemployment in the UK due to sustained growth, investment, labor market flexibility and education spending.
This document defines and categorizes different types of unemployment. It discusses voluntary unemployment which occurs when workers choose to leave jobs to find new opportunities. Involuntary unemployment is defined as unemployment caused by external factors like lack of demand. Specific types of unemployment identified include seasonal, cyclical, technical, frictional, structural, and disguised unemployment. Seasonal unemployment occurs in industries like agriculture that experience fluctuations based on the time of year. Cyclical unemployment is caused by lack of aggregate demand in the economy. Technical unemployment results from technological changes replacing certain jobs. Frictional unemployment is temporary as workers transition between jobs. Structural unemployment is a mismatch between the skills workers have and the jobs available. Disguised unemployment occurs when more workers are
This document provides an overview and summary of unemployment in India presented by Abhishek Agrawal. It begins with defining unemployment and noting India's large unemployment and poverty issues. It then discusses different types of unemployment including frictional, voluntary, casual, chronic, seasonal, disguised, structural, cyclical, and technological unemployment. It also examines the nature of unemployment in India including industrial, urban, rural, educated and disguised unemployment. The document outlines ways to measure unemployment and concludes by reviewing some of the key causes of unemployment in India such as jobless growth, increasing labor force, inappropriate technology, and educational system.
Student Sandeep Sohal prepared a document on unemployment in the UK for his Advanced Communication Skills class with tutor Heather Vail. The document defines unemployment and discusses its history in the UK since the 1950s, including rising rates in recent years. It also examines types of unemployment, factors that cause unemployment, and recommendations for addressing it.
The document provides an introduction to macroeconomics, describing the four main sectors of the macroeconomy - households (consumers), business (producers), government (regulators and tax collectors), and foreign (other economies). It explains that households consume goods and services, businesses produce goods and services for households to consume, the government collects taxes and provides services, and the foreign sector involves international trade. It also introduces the circular flow model showing how income and spending flow between these sectors.
The Bangladeshi economy has undergone significant structural changes over the past four decades. The share of agriculture in GDP has declined from over 60% to less than 20%, while industry and services have increased substantially. The manufacturing sector has become increasingly oriented towards ready-made garments, driven by the expansion of the RMG industry. The unemployment rate is low but many workers suffer from underemployment and informal employment. Structural change models focus on how economies transform from agriculture to more modern manufacturing and services. Lewis's model and Chenery's patterns of development analysis are two influential structural change models.
This document provides definitions and concepts related to macroeconomics and the macroeconomic environment of business. It defines macroeconomics as the study of the overall economy and discusses key macroeconomic objectives, indicators, and policies. It also explains concepts like GDP, GNP, inflation, money supply, and how they are measured. National income accounting and different economic systems are also summarized.
The document discusses employment, unemployment, and policies related to employment in India. It notes that employment generation declined in the mid-1990s but increased in the late 1990s and 2000s. The majority of employment is in the primary sector, with decreasing shares in agriculture and increasing shares in secondary and tertiary sectors over time. Unemployment, both rural and urban, has increased over the decades. Causes of unemployment include slow economic growth, population growth, and inadequate employment planning. Measures to address unemployment and underemployment focus on high economic growth, increasing investment, rural development, rural industrialization, and education and skill development.

The document discusses the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It notes that lockdown measures aimed at slowing the spread of the virus have significantly impacted economies by decreasing productivity, increasing unemployment, and reducing business activity. Specific examples provided include the US GDP decreasing 9.5% in the second quarter of 2020 and over 50 million Americans becoming unemployed. The document also examines impacts in other countries and regions, finding varying degrees of economic decline correlated with public health responses and health outcomes. Potential solutions proposed include following public health guidelines, implementing expansionary policies, and focusing on long-term economic recovery through job training, infrastructure investment, and fiscal support.

The document provides an overview of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on jobs and incomes in G20 economies. It finds that while G20 countries differed in their responses to the health crisis, containment measures generally led to an unprecedented decline in economic and social activities. This resulted in heavy tolls on labour markets, including steep declines in employment, hours worked, and wages. Job and income losses disproportionately impacted certain groups, such as women, youth, and workers in informal employment. The document also discusses the large-scale policy responses adopted by G20 countries to mitigate these impacts and support workers and businesses. It concludes with considerations for policies to aid recovery efforts and "build back better" by addressing underlying labour market challenges.
The document provides a summary of global wage trends based on data from the United Nations and International Labour Organisation. Some key points include:
- Global wage growth decelerated in 2013 compared to 2012 and has yet to rebound to pre-crisis rates.
- Wage growth has been driven mostly by emerging and developing economies, with China alone accounting for almost half of global wage growth.
- Growth in wages in developed economies has remained flat.
- Between 1999-2013, labor productivity growth in developed economies outstripped real wage growth and labor's share of national income.
- Average wages in emerging economies are slowly converging towards those in developed economies.
The document discusses the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy. It describes how the pandemic led to economic contraction as lockdowns reduced economic activity and consumer spending. This caused millions of job losses and rising unemployment. Governments implemented fiscal and monetary policies to stabilize economies and support businesses and workers. The pandemic also disrupted global supply chains and accelerated digital transformation across industries. Overall, the pandemic has posed major challenges for the global economy but also opportunities for innovation in areas like telehealth, e-commerce, and sustainable technologies.
The document summarizes a working note from economists in Luxembourg (RECOVid) on the economic effects of Covid-19 in Luxembourg. The working note provides preliminary estimates of the direct economic impact through back-of-the-envelope calculations and discusses policy options. It estimates that the current lockdown could reduce Luxembourg’s monthly output by 28-42% and GDP by 2.0-3.5% per month of lockdown. Generous budget support is recommended to relieve businesses and households during the lockdown and maintain the economy in hibernation until recovery. There is risk of systemic collapse requiring coordinated European policies, and the long term effects on inequality, digital transformation, and globalization are uncertain
Rebounding from the Crisis: Strategies for Economic Recovery in the Post-COVI...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT : The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global economy and has resulted
in widespread economic instability and uncertainty. This paper aims to analyze the strategies that governments,
businesses, and communities can employ to support economic recovery in the post-COVID-19 world. The study
includes an evaluation of government-led recovery efforts, the role of the private sector, and innovative
solutions for small and medium-sized businesses. The paper also explores the potential of green and sustainable
economic recovery and the challenges that need to be addressed to support a robust rebound from the crisis. The
study also provides case studies of successful economic recovery and recommendations for future
considerations. The findings of this research contribute to a better understanding of the strategies that can
support economic recovery in the post-COVID-19 world and inform policymakers, businesses, and communities
about the path forward.
Keywords: economic recovery, COVID-19, post-pandemic, government efforts, private sector, small and
medium-sized businesses, green recovery, challenges, case studies, future considerations, recommendations.

Export nations need to ensure that supply chains remain as intact as possible. This means that when and where credit insurers are withdrawing from covering international trade during this crisis, the government exceptionally steps in. Otherwise there is a risk a collapse of finely woven supply chains.”

Background
Following the finish of the common war and the adjustment of the residential cash by the national bank, the principal compensation change process occurred in 1996, and a novel correction in 2008 allowed a singular amount increment of LBP 200,000 every month for both open and private divisions representatives, conveying the lowest pay permitted by law up to LBP 500,000 from LBP 300,000.1 For the following sixteen years, in any case, there were no wage increments despite the fact that swelling continued rising and achieved a hundred percent and the acquiring energy of the Lebanese individuals began to drop significantly.2
In an examination led by the Lebanese Federation of Consumer Protection, Lebanon was positioned first among 14 Arab nations regarding high costs for meat, sugar, tea, and drain, and it positioned second when it came to tomato, potato, and vegetable oil costs. The investigation credited these outcomes to the nearness of ineffectively aggressive buyer markets (restraining infrastructures), and to the non-implementation of controls identified with settling business benefit margins.3 These variables and others have added to a noteworthy abatement in the offer of wages in the Gross Domestic Product, which a few substances claim to have achieved a low of 30%.4
By mid of 2011, speaks began mounting about the low level of wages that is keeping Lebanese laborers from fulfilling their essential needs in light of rising sustenance costs and the cost of fundamental administrations like power and transportation. In fact, the issue of wages modification wound up noticeably one of the best needs on general society scene over a five-month time frame between September 2011 and January 2012. These discussions were at first supported by a "political open door" that was emerged by the arrangement of another administration in July 2011 and which pronounced putting social equity among its priorities.5 They were likewise convenient on account of the drawing closer of the new scholastic year that involves along the weight of rising school and college educational cost charges.
The procedure began with an exchange among different concerned gatherings, including the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, the Ministry of Labor, monetary bodies, and worker's guilds. Notwithstanding, the level headed discussion swelled into a contention that undermined the solidarity of the administration before coming full circle in the selection of the wage alteration announce No. 7426 amid the January 18, 2012 session of the Lebanese Cabinet.

Impact of WFH on Marketing Anomalies, Social, And Economic During the Covid-1...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT : This research is a descriptive qualitative research and takes the object in Surabaya. Data were
collected from theoretical and empirical literature, as well as in-depth interviews with informants, then data analysis
was carried out. The results of the analysis show that the cause of the economic anomaly, namely the low
purchasing power of the people, causes a decline in production in the real sector. The cause of the marketing
anomaly is that some companies do not want to provide products according to consumer needs, outof business, on
the other hand, companies that are good at taking advantage of this pandemic have turned to consumer products so
they can make a profit. People are forced to be technology literate to be able to take part in online marketing. The
causes of social anomalies include: the impact of the PSBB is that employees are laid off either temporarily or
permanently. At the time of being laid off, there were companies that gave full salaries, some gave salaries with
certain deductions, some were not paid at all. One side of the employee wants to get a salary when he comes to
work, the other side threatens his health because of the Corona
The document discusses megatrends that will impact global health in the 21st century through the lens of COVID-19. It identifies six megatrends: 1) change in population, 2) change in geopolitics, 3) climate change and environment, 4) improvements in technology, 5) urbanization, and 6) inequalities. It examines how each megatrend has evolved and been impacted by COVID-19, and outlines challenges and opportunities going forward in shaping global health, such as promoting more equitable societies and governance partnerships through sustainable development and innovation. The 2022 PMAC conference aims to convene experts to examine these megatrends and COVID-19's influence to inform alternatives for global health.
The document discusses India facing a trade-off between saving lives during the COVID-19 pandemic through lockdowns, and supporting the large informal economy of daily wage workers. It notes that while lockdowns are crucial to slowing the spread of the virus, they have severely impacted daily wage earners who lose a day's wages. If lockdowns are extended, the impact on the informal sector could be devastating as they lack social protections like insurance. The article argues India must address this humanitarian challenge of supporting informal workers, while prioritizing efforts to contain the virus. It suggests bureaucrats find creative solutions to help the vulnerable informal workforce during this extraordinary crisis situation.
A Study on Impact of Covid19 Crisis on Sustainable Socio Economic GrowthIRJET Journal
1. The document analyzes the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sustainable socioeconomic growth. It discusses the effects on quality of life and mental health, the global economy, gender inequality from increased home working, and implications for consumption and production patterns.
2. Key impacts discussed include job losses negatively affecting incomes and economic stability; increased stress and trauma to mental health; declines in global trade impacting markets and brands; consequences of mandatory home working including tech issues and work-life balance challenges disproportionately affecting women; and implications for more sustainable consumption and production.
Monetary and fiscal policy response and recent developmentsClaro Ganac
The document discusses recent global and domestic developments in the banking industry and their impact on monetary and fiscal policy. It outlines how the 1997 Asian financial crisis, 2008 global financial crisis, and other events have shaped government policies. Domestically, the Philippines' strong economic growth and improving financial markets are noted, alongside the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas' moves to tighten monetary policy like raising reserve requirements to manage inflation risks.
This document discusses ways for Japan to reduce its high debt-to-GDP ratio of 240% through reforms aimed at increasing productivity and GDP. It argues that Japan needs to improve workforce participation rates, particularly of women and immigrants, to combat population aging issues and boost GDP. Increased productivity through deregulation, competition reforms, and innovation are also seen as important to raise Japan's GDP per capita from its current low level. Adopting policies that increase GDP through these reforms could help Japan reach its debt ratio target of 183% set by the IMF and improve its economic outlook.

In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.

3. Abstract
• The Covid-19 epidemic has caused a serious economic fluctuation in
the World. One of the leading reasons behind this great impact is the
lack of an evident authority concerned with the management of global
economy. That has caused the already existing unemployment
problem reaching to new critical levels. Covid-19 has also created a
perception that, local governments will get stronger following the
epidemic. However, almost all goverments in the World are currently
dealing with the unemployment problem that has become more severe.
Definitely, it seems that all governments have their own methods to
deal with the growing unemployment issue triggered by Covid-19
epidemic. This paper argues that, passive methods to eliminate the
unemployment problem through Covid-19 epidemic such as
incentives, benefits, aids and unemployment insurance are not
completely correct techniques.
4. • The reason is that, we believe such methods bring a great
burden on national budgets and they are also temporary short-
term solutions. This study puts forward that, active methods
aimed at the long-run should be implemented in order to solve
the unemployment problem permanently. Also, efficiency based
wage rise policies must be adopted for the welfare of economy,
employees and employers. Absolutely, the Covid-19 epidemic
has proved us that, healthy and safe working environments are
a must for the employees. In fact, this factor is expected to
become more important in the post-Covid-19 era.

6. INTRODUCTION
• During the Covid-19 epidemic process, it has been observed that the
areas of global finance and global production are potentially
contradictory. Increasing global production depends on financial
stability as well as political stability. Today's global financial markets are
unstable. The global financial system controls future production due to
its ability to create credit. The probability of a financial crisis causing a
crisis in the real economy (real sector) is much higher today than in the
previous periods. The reason for this is that, the global financial sector is
kept out of the political control of the governments, and the financial
markets are not affected by even the strongest governments. Global
financial markets are outside government regulations. Global finance
partially operates without the regulations. All other governments,
including G7 governments, do not have the power to regulate financial
markets.
7. • Unlike the national economy, the
management of the global economy is
outside the political center.
International institutions such as the
World Bank, International Monetary
Fund (IMF) and General Agreement
on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) formed
during the period of the Bretton
Woods system have been inadequate in
the management of the global economy
in recent years. Along with the
economic fluctuations caused by the
Covid-19 outbreak, the political
authority gap regarding the
management of the global economy
caused the unemployment problem in
the world to increase and reach critical
levels (Bretton Woods Project, 2019)
8. • The global leadership gap in the Covid-19 epidemic has
convinced the governments of most countries that localization
and consolidation of political power will be effective in
preventing this crisis, thereby influencing the belief that local
democracy will emerge from this crisis more strongly. The
unemployment problem, which was on the agenda with the
Covid-19 epidemic, forced states to intervene in the labor
market through various employment policies, especially in
order to find a solution to the unemployment problem.
However, the employment policies of countries differ according
to their goals. While countries seek solutions with passive
employment policies towards those who lost their jobs as a
result of the Covid-19 epidemic, they aim at preventing and
limiting the post-epidemic unemployment in their countries.
9. • Other countries have aimed to compensate for the negative
consequences of this situation with passive employment policies
for the unemployment problem after the Covid-19 epidemic.
These countries have taken measures to provide a certain
economic security to the unemployed after the Covid 19
epidemic. These measures generally consist of unemployment
insurance and unemployment benefits. However, today it has
been observed that such passive employment policies actually
do not contain measures preventing unemployment and they
also impose huge burdens on the budget (U.S. Department of
Labor, 2020).
10. • In the Covid-19 epidemic process, further
complementary measures are needed, as
unemployment benefits are increasing costs
and they are insufficient to solve the
unemployment problem. Accordingly, for
those who are unemployed after the Covid-
19 epidemic, compensatory policies should
not be the priority to solve unemployment-
related problems. It will be more appropriate
to focus on active employment policies for
lowering unemployment, if a concentration
on elimating the unemployment completely
is not possible
11. • That should be included in
the agenda for the welfare of
stakeholders. The need for
long-term thinking
outweighs here for sure.
Therefore, it would be more
appropriate to apply active
and passive employment
policies that complement
each other to solve the
unemployment problem
after Covid-19 (International
Labor Organization - ILO,
12. • The wage policies followed by many governments prior to the
Covid-19 epidemic varied depending on the current economic
policies and the globalization process. For example, the low
wage policy was advocated in the period until the 1929
economic crisis. With the low wage policy, classical
economists have suggested that production costs will
decrease, they can invest more with increasing profits, growth
can be accelerated, economic stagnation and decline can be
prevented, and unemployment will decrease (Organisation
for Economic Co-operation and Development - OECD, 2007).
13. • In 1936, together with Keynes' General Theory, this
situation was replaced by the high wage policy. It has
been suggested that, the high wage policy will bring
continuity and stability to the demand of products
manufactured in the economy and will play an important
role in ensuring full employment. In particular, in the
1950s and 1960s, when the growth rate was high and the
total demand was alive, the high wage policy had found a
wide area of application (Pencavel, 2015).
14. • After the Covid-19 epidemic, a wage policy based on the
productivity wage increase relationship will have benefits not only
for the general economy, but also for the employee and employer.
However, it is imperative to provide a healthy and safe working
environment. Even if this means an additional cost, it is essential
for efficiency. The reason is that, efficiency of the employees also
depends on feeling safe. The productivity wage increase
relationship plays an active role in increasing competitiveness and
accelerates economic growth by enabling more efficient use of
limited resources. Human capital as a component of the intellectual
capital is very critical for organizations as well as managing human
resources efficiently. Actually, this is widely accepted for decades
now (Skinner, 1981).
15.
16. LITERATURE REVIEW
• There exists several papers in the literature, which focus on the
unemployment impact of Covid-19 epidemic. Based on one of
these papers, the effect of Covid-19 epidemic on
unemployment is enormous. Besides, the mental and physical
stress about losing jobs causes suicides by the employees. This
study also argues that, low level workers face a higher risk of
unemployment compared to high level workers who earn more
wages (Elliott, 2020).
17. • Another study emphasizes that, we are introduced to the Covid-
19 epidemic recently in our lives. Because of this reason, some
new and never experienced financial fraud have emerged. Thus,
the impact of Covid-19 is stronger than expected. The
mentioned study underlined the fact that, Covid-19 epidemic
was not only creating health risks, but it was also creating
financial risks. Various types of financial fraud tied to the
Covid-19 epidemic was stated in this paper. Recommended
solutions and measures were also discussed (Kızıl, 2020).
18. • Unemployment in the time of Covid-19 epidemic was the main
idea of a research. This paper also attracted attention to the
psychological aspects of Covid-19. According to the study,
unemployment period through Covid-19 differs from previous
unemployment periods with its unique structure. Loss of life
is also observed besides loss of job. There is an inequality
concerned with the effects of Covid-19, which are more
evident on the low-income, poor and working class
individuals. This paper also mentions the problem of
unemployment among young people (Blustein et. al., 2020).
19. • Individuals and businesses are going
through a difficult process in the Covid-19
era as mentioned in a paper. But, instead of
accepting the process in question and
putting it to a complete wait state, a
proactive action plan is a must. Companies
should firstly discuss the impact of the
Covid-19 epidemic on a macro and micro
basis. Also, it would be wise for firms to
review and evaluate their production
processes and costs. Based on an accounting
and finance viewpoint, it is the right move
for businesses to always check their liquidity
status during the epidemic. In particular, it
is essential to have sufficient liquidity for the
continuation of the activities. Low liquidity
in the enterprise can be a big problem in
salary and debt payments.
20. • If the liquidity is not at the desired
level, companies should identify their
idle fixed assets that are not used in
production, which do not create
efficiency and added value, and if
necessary, dispose of them into liquid
assets. Similarly, cash flow
management and inventory planning
should be done effectively. If the
enterprises already have contracts
with other businesses they do
business with, but the counter-
enterprises must have difficulties
making their payments due to the
epidemic, this method can be used
when barter is possible (Kızıl, 2020).
21. • Analyzing the impact of Covid-19 on unemployment especially
in the United States, a paper underlined the fact that epidemic
was destroying the job market in every state. According to the
study, no event such as the Covid-19 was experienced before. It
was indicated that more than 40 million Americans had also
filed for unemployment benefits. This paper also predicts that,
job losses because of Covid-19 will increase in the following
periods (Chiwaya and Wu, 2020).
22. • Global impact of the Covid-19 was taken into consideration in a
paper. According to the mentioned paper, by ensuring that people
stay at home, the speed at which the virus spreads is attempted to
be reduced. Workplaces and schools have been closed, and public
transportation services have been reduced. On the one hand, this
reduces the chances of the virus spreading and spreading, but on
the other hand it causes the economy to stop and people to lose
their jobs. This paper argues that, the economic and financial
effects of Covid-19 epidemic will be more severe in the developing
countries compared to developed countries (Başaran, 2020).
23. • The financial and economical reflections of Covid-19 on the
young population was the main motivation of another paper.
According to the study, the International Labor Organization
(ILO) announced that 1 out of 6 young workers worldwide has
become unemployed in the Covid-19 epidemic. The United
Nations (UN) agency warned that, this situation would be a
major challenge for the younger generation in the long term
unless action is taken to alleviate the crisis. Based on this paper,
ILO also stated that, 305 million full-time jobs were lost due to
the Covid-19 crisis (Euro News, 2020.
24. • Covid-19 epidemic related financial and economic impacts
were compared to the 1929 economic depression as well. It was
mentioned that, due to Covid-19 epidemic in the World and
despite their economic package announced by the government
in Turkey, effects of Covid-19 are still easily visible. Since the
Great Depression of 1929, the World has faced the greatest
crisis according to this paper. The rapidly increasing number
of unemployment was discussed as well (Şimşek, 2020).
25.
26. CONCLUSION
• Overall, despite the Covid-19 epidemic, today's efficiency-based
wage policy can play a key role in ensuring economic stability as
well as enhancing competitiveness. The reason is that,
technological development continues exactly with a rapid face and
all the factors that make up globalization remain the same in place.
Therefore, this process, which seems to have changed, continues
exactly.
27. • Therefore, low or high wage policies, which are not based on
productivity, have started to be terminated, especially in
developed countries. Efficiency and security must go hand in
hand now. It is also necessary to add occupational health and
safety factors to this formula. The additional cost of this will
be worth the economic success. Otherwise, this process will be
disrupted and will bring with it a global failure and economic
collapse.
28. • Finally, taking the Covid-
19 epidemic seriously, all
occupational health and
safety precautions should
be taken and necessary
actions must be observed
with the principle of
efficiency. It is not possible
to predict what the next
epidemic or disaster will
bring. However, the lessons
and precautions we will
take from this disaster will
definitely help us later.
