The trouble is that the bulk of these new technologies are labor saving. They entail the replacement of low and medium skilled workers with machines operated by a much smaller number of highly skilled workers.

In the absence of large scale immigration, to which Japanese remain unamenable, one relatively simple solution would be to integrate more women into the labor force. A 10 increase in Japan s female labor force participation rate an entirely attainable goal would translate into an almost 5 gain in total labor force participation.

These differences have persisted in the most recent decade, even though tepid economic growth and labor displacement by smarter machines have weakened demand for high skill, high cognition occupations. Many college educated workers simply have been forced down the occupational ladder into jobs traditionally performed by lower skilled workers, who in turn have been pushed further down the occupational ladder or out of the labor force altogether.

In employment, policy efforts are being made toward the creation employment opportunities and labor force training professional training and integration of youth, demobilized soldiers, women and other groups of difficult groups in the labor force.

Apparently they are. The demographic burden of a rapidly growing labor force appears to be greatly increased when that labor force is not very literate, especially when inadequate infrastructure, crime, and official corruption also take their toll.

As a recent article in the Financial Times points out, in two areas notoriously immune to productivity increases, education and health care, technology is already reducing the demand for skilled labor. Translation, data analysis, legal research a whole range of high skilled jobs may wither away.

To be on the safe side, host countries often try to limit immigration to skilled workers, because they join segments of the labor market in which sufficient downward wage flexibility provides immigrants with additional jobs. But countries have so far had mixed success in attracting skilled immigrants.

However, it is the female labor force that is the major participant in this production.

The labor force is roughly 43.2 million with 39.6 million employed and 3.6 million unemployed.

The general education level of women in the labor force is higher than that of men.

Arab women today constitute about 4 of all women in the civil labor force in Israel.

Indeed, excessive wage deflation is likely to have negative effects on productivity. Skilled labor is likely to emigrate faster, and extreme austerity, falling prices, and high unemployment and the resulting likelihood of social tension are not exactly conducive to investment, innovation, or labor mobility.

There has been no significant progress on supply side reforms, especially on the core issue of how to expand the labor force. With an aging and shrinking population, Japan s government must find ways to encourage more women to work, entice older Japanese to remain in the labor force, and develop more family friendly labor policies.

The highest level of labor force participation for both genders is in the 25 34 age group.

Moreover, the decline in unemployment largely reflects persistently grim labor market conditions, which have discouraged many workers from remaining in the labor force. If the labor force participation rate was 66 , as it was in early 2008, rather than 62.8 , as it was in December 2013, the unemployment rate would be just over 11 , not 6.7 .

The problem stems from how unemployment is measured The adult unemployment rate is calculated by dividing the number of unemployed individuals by all individuals in the labor force. So if the labor force comprises 200 workers, and 20 are unemployed, the unemployment rate is 10 .

A large and important part of female labor force is found in the informal business, particularly in urban areas.

In an eminently agrarian country, its labor force obviously tends to be situated in the limits of this activity.

However, the labor force comprehending men or women corresponds, in majority, informal workers (or non structured sector of society).

If women in Europe work more hours in better quality jobs, it will stimulate demand for service jobs like cleaning and child care, thus reducing unemployment among low skilled workers. Moreover, the increased supply of high quality female labor will not incur additional healthcare and pension costs, unlike labor immigration.

Many Puerto Ricans, unable to find jobs on the island, have migrated to the mainland, with the population and labor force estimated to be shrinking at a rate of 1.5 this year. Moreover, Puerto Rico s labor force participation rate is under 40 , compared to 62 on the mainland.

According to OECD data, only 55 of South Korean women aged 15 64 are in the labor force, compared to an average of 65 in the advanced economies. South Korea s male labor force participation rate, by contrast, stands at about 77 close to the OECD average of 79 .

Labor market reform Persistently high unemployment and large scale withdrawal from the labor force are a constant reminder of a malfunctioning labor market that needs support through better training and retooling. Reform must also address the related challenges of a lagging education system and an insufficient social safety net.

The same sort of logic applies to the large states France and Germany are losing skilled labor at the same time as they are drawing in cheaper labor from Eastern Europe. The result is that they are feeling less French or German, creating greater political room, on both the left and the right, for nationalist ressentiment.

In 2003, 27 of the women in the labor force had 16 years or more of schooling, compared to 23 of the men.

European unemployment, for example, appears to be half again as high as in the US. Labor force participation is lower and a substantial part of that lower labor force participation is not the result of untrammeled choice but of discouraged workers and institutions that make it very difficult for households that have every adult at work.

So, they run the risk to enter a vicious cycle of dependence the next agricultural campaign, should they not count with sufficient labor force.

In addition, men's decreasing participation in the Israeli labor force has aggravated in 2002 2003 and reflects the despair of those searching for employment.
