Disguised unemployment is when the number of persons working in a job are more than actually required. For example, if in an agricultural activity, eight people are engaged but this work/activity actually requires the services of five people, then three extra persons come under disguised employment.Read more
Disguised unemployment is when the number of persons working in a job are more than actually required. For example, if in an agricultural activity, eight people are engaged but this work/activity actually requires the services of five people, then three extra persons come under disguised employment. If these three people out of eight are withdrawn, total production will remain unaffected. Disguised Unemployment is an important feature of a joint family business. In this, more people are visibly employed but are actually unemployed. This is a situation of underemployment, where people are apparently working but all of them are made to work less than their potential. This situation is also known as Hidden Unemployment.
For example: In rural areas, this type of unemployment is generally found in the agricultural sector like – in a family of 9 people all are engaged in the same agricultural plot. But if 4 people are withdrawn from it there will be no reduction in output. So, these 4 people are actually disguisedly employed.
In urban areas, this type of unemployment can be seen mostly in service sectors such as in a family all members are engaged in one petty shop or a small business which can be managed by less number of persons.

The tertiary sector is for the services rendered and the other two sectors are for production of goods. The activities under this sector help in the development of the primary and secondary sectors. Therefore, it is also known as the service sector. These are auxiliary services that support the production process. For example, goods produced in the primary or secondary sector use transportation service for movements of goods from one place to another, banking and communication services to deal with payment for goods, etc.

For each of the sectors that we came across in this chapter, one should focus on employment and GDP because they decide the extent of the economy of a country and the stipulation of the economy.
A focus on employment and GDP helps us to determine two important things- per capita income and productivity. So, in all the three sectors, employment rate and status and its contribution to the GDP helps us know how that particular sector is performing and what needs to be done to initiate the growth in it further. Yes, the other issues which should be examined are:
• Balance in regional development.
• Equality in income and wealth among all the people of the country.
• How to eliminate poverty?
• Modernization of technology.
•Self-reliance of the country.
• How to attain surplus food production in the country?

The classification of economic activities into primary, tertiary and secondary is useful as it provides necessary information on how and where the people of a country are employed. It is also a determining factor as to which sector of economic activity contributes more or less to the country’s GDP and per capita income. With this information we can bifurcate the sectoral share in the economy and government can make amendment in policies to boost the sector contributing less to the economy.
If the tertiary sector is developing much faster than the primary sector, then it indicates that agriculture is depleting, and the government must take measures to rectify this. It is also an indicative of which sector is the most popular and which sector is becoming unpopular or regressive. Hence it is necessary to classify economic activities into these three sectors for smooth economic administration and development.
