1. Strengthen vocational training and re-education: structural unemployment is often caused by skill mismatch. Through vocational training and re-education, workers can be helped to upgrade their skills and adapt to the new market demand. The government, enterprises and educational institutions can cooperate to provide targeted training courses so that workers can master new skills and improve their employment competitiveness.
2. Promote the flexibility of the labor market: Improving the flexibility of the labor market will help workers move between different industries and occupations. The government can reduce the obstacles of labor mobility by reforming labor laws and regulations, such as simplifying cross-industry and cross-regional employment procedures and reducing the cost of labor mobility.
3. Develop emerging industries and create new employment opportunities: Encouraging innovation and entrepreneurship and developing emerging industries can create more employment opportunities. The government can encourage enterprises to innovate and promote the development of emerging industries by providing tax incentives, financial support and other measures, thus increasing employment.
4. Providing employment services and career guidance: Establishing a sound employment service system and providing services such as career guidance and employment information for workers will help them better understand the market demand and find suitable jobs. The government can set up public employment service agencies to provide one-stop services to help workers solve problems in the process of employment.
Effects of structural unemployment:
1. Waste of human resources: When structural unemployment occurs in some industries or regions, the unemployed often cannot find suitable jobs because of mismatched skills or inappropriate geographical location. This leads to the waste of their human resources, because they can't play their talents and skills in the positions that are most suitable for them.
2. Social welfare burden: structural unemployment will increase the burden of government and social welfare. Because the unemployed can't find suitable jobs, they may rely on the benefits provided by the government, such as unemployment insurance and assistance. This has increased the financial burden of the government and brought a certain burden to the society.
3. Decline in consumption level: Unemployment will reduce people's income, thus reducing their consumption level. When a large number of people are unemployed, the consumption level of the whole society may decline, which will have a negative impact on economic growth.
4. Mental health problems: structural unemployment often brings psychological pressure and anxiety to the unemployed, and long-term unemployment may lead to mental health problems such as depression and inferiority. These psychological problems will not only affect the quality of life of individuals, but also have a negative impact on the mental health of the whole society.
5. Affect family and social stability: Long-term structural unemployment may lead to family and social instability. Unemployed people may face problems such as economic difficulties and family tension, which may lead to disharmony between family and society.
