Answer to Question 1

Workers who have a job and workers who are unemployed are in the labor force. To be officially counted as unemployed, and thus in the labor force, means that the person does not have a job but is available and willing to work and has made some effort to find work within the past four weeks, or waiting to be called back to a job from which he or she has been laid off, or waiting to start a new job within 30 days.
