History for Tegal

And I’ve shown you they are actually counted as unemployed when the data is collected. A few of them were even perfect examples of natural unemployment, which is what my original post was about. The exception I think would be your Uncle who wouldn’t have been counted as unemployed while he was sick, but would have been if he started actively looking for a job when he became well again. 

Measure like natural unemployment, underemployment and so forth need to be taken into account when looking into employment data. But very rarely do politicians or the media look past the very simplistic unemployment rate. Stats NZ does go a lot deeper than that, they even collect data for underemployment as a measure after a review a couple of years ago (although based on recent media comments NZF/labour doesn’t seem to know that for some reason). 

Take a look at the Stats NZ website, it’s quite heavy but very interesting and all the information is publicly available.
