Unemployment or disconnection is a serious social and economic problem with far-reaching consequences everywhere, but it is sometimes overlooked. To better understand the causes of unemployment and ways to solve them, a more robust way of assessing unemployment must be applied.

Crime statistics, poverty statistics, health statistics and, increasingly, market statistics all play a role in the social and economic life of countries. However, few of these statistics deal with the impact or cultural significance of unemployment rates.
