Abstract: | As labour markets have become more complex there has been increasing interest among researchers in understanding the ways
that social and labour market processes and contexts impact on various labour market states. One important area has been in
understanding the differences between unemployment and hidden unemployment. This paper considers the ways in which these two
labour market states differ for a sample of male and female respondents to the Household Income and Labour Dynamics Australia
(HILDA) survey. It presents data related to the reasons why respondents in these two labour force states consider they are
jobless and analyses the characteristics of male and female respondents in the two labour market states to consider differences
in outcomes. The findings suggest that there are differences in the two states of labour market outcomes and that these are
further complicated when one considers processes for males and females. |
