Description

Definition
The Gallup Unemployment Rate is the percentage of respondents in the workforce who are not employed, who have been actively looking for work within the last four weeks, AND who say they would have been able to begin work in the last four weeks. Gallup's unemployment measure is comparable to BLS and International Labour Organization unemployment calculations.
