Roderick Thornton · Answer 1

unemployed

Explanation:

The US department of labor defines a person as unemployed when:

they are willing and able to work (at least 16 years old and capable or working) have been without a job for at least the past four weeks are actively seeking a new job

In this case, Ginny is considered unemployed, but if she returns to college then she will no longer be unemployed (she will not be willing and able to work) since she will not be part of the labor force any more.

The correct answer is Unemployed

Explanation:

Unemployment, in the labor market, refers to the situation of the citizen who lacks employment and, therefore, salary. By extension, it is the part of the population of age, conditions and willingness to work - active population - that lacks a job. 1 To refer to the number of unemployed people in the population, the unemployment rate by country or other is used territory. The situation contrary to unemployment is full employment.

In addition to the active population, which includes both those who are working and the whole of the unemployed or unemployed in a country, societies have an inactive population composed of those members of the population who are not willing to work, whether by studies, age, illness or any other legally established cause.
