1. Cyclical unemployment 2. Structural unemployment 3. Frictional unemployment Structural unemployment arises from a mismatch between the jobs available in some labor markets and the skills of workers. One cause of structural unemployment is institutional factors such as a minimum wage, which holds wages above the marginal productivity of less skilled workers, limiting their employment opportunities. Frictional unemployment occurs because job seekers and employers need time to find one another. Therefore, Valerie is considered to be frictionally unemployed. This kind of unemployment is usually brief. Cyclical unemployment is the form of unemployment associated with business cycles. This kind of unemployment rises during recessions and falls during expansions. Because Caroline lost her job due to the recession, she would generally be considered to be cyclically unemployed.
