Youth Career Management (YCM) reports that: There are 2 ways of production abroad can be moved. The first way is closing a plant in the Netherlands and simultaneously opening a similar establishment in Indonesia for example. This form of displacement occurs mainly in multinationals. A multinational is a company with production facilities in several countries, such as Philips, Coca-Cola.

Second, it may be that such companies from the Netherlands are driven out by companies from low wage countries.

Moving production abroad is related to the competitiveness of a country compared to abroad. Under competitive we mean the ability to better and / or cheaper to produce than competitors. The main weapon in the competitive struggle is the price. The price depends on the costs besides playing competitive prices, quality and infrastructure as a role.

How is Unemployment Now?

unemployment in united states http://youthcm.com

Youth Career Management (YCM) reports that: Between 1991 and 2005, the working employment force of about 5.51 million people to 6.9 million people. This increase related primarily to women (44% in 1990 to 57% in 2002) and 55-plus (27% in 1990 to 38% in 2002).

In 2002 hit this situation between January 2002 and December 2003 unemployment rose by 40% to 403,000. Unemployment is maximum among the youth, women, and immigrants and low-skilled. Unemployment is primarily caused by the bad economy.

The CPB expects that in 2004 unemployment will rise sharply, regardless of the slight recovery of the economy in the Netherlands. The protuberance of the Central Planning Office suggests that it is predictable that unemployment will fall to 490,000, or 6.24 percent of the labor force.

Employment in healthcare will probably still increase, but this is not sufficient for the quick rise in unemployment.

The burden and higher pension contributions increases the wedge (the difference between labor costs for businesses and net income of workers) substantially. This will surely guide to a boost in the estimated equilibrium unemployment which in 2004 will rise to 5.5 percent.

Now you can observe there are smaller amount women are element of the workforce and that among women increased unemployment. However, women generally have higher education than men. The less educated unemployment higher than the higher educated.

unemployment in united states http://youthcm.com

Youth Career Management (YCM) reports that: On the job market, employers and those who work meet. The employers (buyers) are looking for employees who want to work with them. A job is an example of a concrete market. A concrete market is a place where demanding and suppliers of a given product meet.

The labor market is an example of an abstract market.

An abstract market comprises the whole supply and demand without there being a place where buyers (buyers) and suppliers (sellers) meet. The supply and demand determine the price.

On the labor market labor demand and supply together.

This will determine how many people actually work. This number is the employment.

The job consists of employed persons.

Work Years are the number of hours you work per week. Full courses are now 38uur per week.

The price of labor is the reward.

The highest of the wage is dependent on the extent to which supply and demand match.

If labor demand exceeds the supply we speak of tight labor market. Wages will rise. When demand is less than the offer we speak of broad labor market. The wages will fall.

There are not one but different labor market segments. Markets are a market for teachers or plumbers etc. This is a separate profession.

By analyzing the costs of different production methods, a company can identify the least-cost production and therefore the most profitable. Companies can often choose from several combinations of equipment and labor to produce a certain quantity of goods. Which company makes the choice depends on the labor and cost of capital (the capital). Is in the production more work compared to machines turned on, then the more labor intensive. Labor is replaced by capital, we call this substitution. The products are capital intensive. Rising labor costs meant that the factory people went balls replaced by better and more modern machines. The production was a result kapitaalintensiever.Je speaks of fundamental investment as a replacement labor investment has the effect of labor rises. At a depth investment company buys the equipment of better quality. Buy a business capital of the same quality we call that width investment. Labor productivity in this instance remains the same. Width investment can replace old machines but also expanding the fleet. The relationship between machines and workers remains the same so it remains just as capital intensive and labor intensive as it already was. The production capacity is the maximum amount that can be produced.

By scale we mean that the cost per drop as production volume increases.
