The correct option is A unemployment

The labour force is defined simply as the people who are willing and able to work. The size of the labour force is used to determine the unemployment rate. The percentage of the unemployed in the labour force is called the unemployment rate. Unemployment Rate = (Number of Unemployed / Labour Force) * 100.
