Question

Seasonal unemployment is : A. due to the fact that workers must search for appropriate job offers. B. a result of a poor match of worker's abilities and skills with current requirements of employers. C. a result of the seasonal pattern of work in specific industries. D. a result of business recessions that occur when aggregate demand is insufficient to create full employment.

Answer 1

C. a result of the seasonal pattern of work in specific industries

Step-by-step explanation:

Seasonal Unemployment results out of seasonal demand of labor in those industries where the nature of job is dependent upon weather or business seasons.

For example in case of crops, during the harvest season, there is high demand for labor while during the rest of the year there is no demand at all. So laborers of such industries are employed for a fixed duration in an year and remain unemployed for the rest of the period.

This unemployment is not due to inadequacy of labor skills but results owing to nature of the industry and seasonal pattern of the work required.
