Answer 2

So-called discouraged workers are not counted in the unemployment rate.

In economics, a discouraged worker refers to a person of legal employment age who is not actively seeking for a job or who has not found employment after long-term unemployment, but who would like to be working.

Discourage workers are not included in the core statistics of the unemployment rate since they are neither working nor job-seeking.
