One major problem our world is experiencing is unemployment.
As time passes by, more and more people find it hard to get jobs worthy to
sustain a living. This essay will present the possible causes of the high
unemployment rate as well as the probable solutions to this issue.
Population. This is the biggest contributing factor to
joblessness. The total number of humans has increased tenfold since the era of
industrialization. Although population growth means our lifestyle and medical
technology is better, we cannot deny the fact that it also results in a lack of
work opportunities. More people means more competition. Another reason for
unemployment is the fact that there are fewer businesses and work opportunities
available. It is a common idea that it is easier to find jobs in urban cities.
This prompts people from rural places to move to cities to try their lucks in
applying for work there. However, not everyone can be blessed to find a job and
they end up being stuck in cities unable to go home due to lack of funds.
Before this dilemma becomes overwhelming uncontrollable,
certain measures need to be done. First, governments of nations with
exponential numbers of citizens must try to lessen the rate of their population
by implementing laws to control childbirth. Perhaps the greatest example of
this was China’s famous one-child policy. Second, governments must somehow find
a way to create employment opportunities even in provincial areas. This can be
done by promoting certain products and services especially found in a specific
area. In the Philippines, they promote the “one town one product” initiative.
This means a town must identify and advertise their special product to the
country by creating different goods out of it. By doing this, local businesses
can mass manufacture their items by employing the townspeople.
As a final note, the concerns regarding the lack of work
opportunities will only worsen if no measures are done. Local governments,
private businesses, and even the community must work together to alleviate this
problem in any way possible before this challenge becomes unmanageable.
