EFFECT OF UNEMPLOYMENT ON GRADUATES OF COMPUTER EDUCATION
ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to look at the “effects of unemployment on Computer Education graduates in Ovia North East in Benin City, Edo State.” During the course of the work, the researcher examined various types of unemployment, such as frictional unemployment, seasonal unemployment, cyclical unemployment, and residual unemployment.
The researcher also spends time studying related literature. Furthermore, it was shown that some of the causes of unemployment are far too numerous for Computer Education graduates looking for work. The movement of people from rural to urban areas is irrelevant to the course studies.
However, certain recommendations were made in the final chapter, including the following: the government should rebuild our education system to meet the needs of society, the government should make agriculture more appealing, Finally, the government should provide required infrastructure to prevent rural-urban movement; if these are supplied, it will help to cut unemployment rates to some extent.
INTRODUCTION TO CHAPTER ONE THE STUDY’S HISTORY
The rate at which unemployed computer education graduates in Edo State roam the streets without work has piqued everyone’s interest. One can begin to worry about the roots of these heinous patterns, as well as the impact they have on the economy of Edo State.
In order to do justice to the causes and effects of unemployment on computer education graduates, it is necessary to understand the meaning of the notion of ‘unemployment’ during the course of this research. Unemployment is a condition or scenario in which people who are capable and willing to work are unable to find paid work.
Many people, probably even the majority of the population, do not have paid occupations in any economy because they are nursing newborns or caring for their family. Unemployment refers to those who are out of work involuntarily, or who desire to work but can’t find it.
Because it is impossible to have 100% employment in any economy, the following sorts of unemployment may exist. Frictional unemployment refers to workers who are transitioning from one job to another and appear in the unemployment statistics at any one period. Structural unemployment: These are persons who are physically, mentally, and intellectually healthy yet are unable to find work.
The researcher of this thesis is worried on structural unemployment. Unemployables: These are people who have a physical or mental disability, which means that while they would prefer to work, there is no work available to them. Normal or transitional unemployment: This occurs when people change jobs, that is, when people want to change or relocate to a different region of the country for better job opportunities.
Cyclical unemployment refers to the periodic ups and downs in the level of industry activity. Visible unemployment refers to the presence of a big number of persons who are unemployed and desperately seeking job. Invisible unemployment, on the other hand, is a situation in which people are not looking for work because they believe there are no job opportunities for them.
Unemployment has been a concern since the 1930s, even before the Great Depression. By 1960, school leavers in Nigeria, notably Edo State, had relatively easy access to jobs, skilled labour was fearful and difficult to come by, and employers sought them out rather than the other way around, as it is now.
However, it should be noted that the focus of this study is on unemployables experiencing frictional unemployment. However, this author is investigating the impact and pattern of visible supply shortages and structurally unemployed computer education graduates in Edo State.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEMS
Because Edo State lacks statistical data and records, determining the degree of the effect of unemployment is challenging.
Because of the large number of people who graduate from our colleges and universities each year, the problem of unemployment among computer education graduates is developing at an alarming rate. Graduates of computer education programmes leave college with no possibility of finding work in the state. This has resulted in a study of the causes and effects of computer education graduates’ unemployment in Benin City in particular, and Nigeria in general.
THE STUDY’S OBJECTIVES
The study’s aims are as follows:
1. Investigate the causes and characteristics of unemployment among computer education graduates.
2. Investigate the consequences of unemployment on Benin City computer education graduates.
3. Make recommendations for potential solutions to the identified problems of unemployment among this group of graduates, which can help to mitigate the impact.
QUESTIONS FOR RESEARCH
i. What are the key factors causing unemployment?
ii. What difficulties have you encountered as a result of your unemployment?
iii. Does unemployment cause health issues?
iv. How do the repercussions of unemployment affect the family?
v. What is the unemployment rate in Ovia North East Local Government Area?
IMPORTANCE OF THE STUDY
The federal government, local governments, tertiary institutions, students, and the general public will benefit from this research.
Since the causes and effects of unemployment have been recognised and documented, it is hoped that the state government will address it and expedite the state’s economic development.
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
The breadth of this project work encompasses the entire nation, however for the sake of specificity, this study concentrates solely on the causes and effects of unemployment on computer education graduates.
DEFINITION OF TERMS
Some words used in the process are defined in this study as follows;
Unemployment is a condition or scenario in which people who are capable and willing to work are unable to find paid work.
Workers’ transition from one job to another is referred to as frictional unemployment.
Structural unemployment: These are persons who are physically, mentally, and intellectually healthy yet are unable to find work. The researcher of this thesis is worried on structural unemployment.
Visible unemployment refers to the gathering of a big number of persons who are unemployed and desperately seeking work.
Unemployment: This is due to a physical or mental impairment, which means that, while they would prefer to work, there is no work available to them.
Normal or transitory unemployment: This occurs when people shift jobs, that is, when they just want to change or relocate to a different region of the country for better job opportunities.
Cyclical unemployment: This phrase relates to the fluctuating levels of industrial activity.
