IV. CONCLUSION
The summarize of the research is:
- Of the 1000 employees who were laid off and looking for work sometime in 2003, 57% (mostly) had been looking for work by January 2004;
- Mostly the unemployment rate by age groups and sex is 15–19 age youth, it is about 45,2%, mostly females - 53,4%
- Mostly the unemployed by education is that who were finished only Secondary schools, it is about 31.9%, mostly females – 32.7%.
- Mostly the unemployed are women, because of household and other social limitations and attitudes.
Lastly, unemployment is a traumatic and demoralizing experience for men and for women. There is a loss of self-esteem and self-confidence. Intellectually, a person can know that the loss of a job was because of factors beyond his or her control, yet will somehow feel to blame. The longer the period of unemployment, the greater the erosion of self-worth and the greater the sense of failure.
