The line between structural and frictional unemployment: whether the missing skill can be learned in a few weeks Skills mismatch as a macro cause: what the education system produces has little to do with what employers list When an industry migrates the whole supply chain leaves and the workers left behind are not unskilled but stranded New drawings and a new parts supplier leave a fitter with ten years on the floor suddenly unqualified The gap between leaving one job and starting the next runs about ten weeks and that is normal frictional churn Keynesian cyclical unemployment in one line: demand collapses and firms cut hours before they cut people Regional mismatch: the jobs are in Shenzhen and the workers are in the northeast and moving costs more than the wage gap How well do retraining programmes work for a 45-year-old learning a new trade When cyclical and structural unemployment overlap do you fix demand first or retrain first Four thousand coal miners cannot code and that gap is textbook structural unemployment
