Question

The worker-population ratio by itself is insufficient to fully understand employment because it does not show which of the following?

Options

• The total population of the country

• The workers' status and working conditions

• The number of factories in an economy

• The literacy rate of the workforce

Answer 1

The worker-population ratio only indicates the proportion of the population that is working. It does not reveal the status of workers or their working conditions, which are essential to judge the nature of employment.
