A Review of Factors Affecting Unemployment in Ethiopia
Abstract
Ethiopia has identified unemployment at the strategic and policy levels. They are viewed as a means of reducing unemployment through misguided educational approaches, providing entrepreneurship skills and extra training, and reducing the mismatch between work and talent in industries. Previous research has shown that the incremental unemployment rate in developing nations such as Ethiopia is higher than in industrialized countries due to a range of internal and external variables. As a result, the goal of this research was to identify the primary influences that typically impact unemployment in Ethiopia. To achieve the study's goal, previous researches (journal papers) from 2012 to 2023 were used. Higher population growth, rural-urban migration, poor educational quality, lack of entrepreneurship, lack of experience, corruption, age, gender, rapid technological change, access to electrical power, access to market information, and the economic status of their families are the major factors that commonly determine unemployment in Ethiopia. Finally, the report advised that the government, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and financial institutions take special care of Ethiopia's unemployment.
