3.247 million of the population is a huge number of people, especially when they are potentially employable. Fallen under an unaccountable category are people who were once part of the working population but lost their job, and were unable to find employment for a long period of time, leading to them losing hope of finding a job at all. At this later stage, they are no longer part of the unemployment population calculation. BLS has a separate category for that, called labor underutilization. Underutilized workers and unemployment can be very easily be interpreted as same, but the underutilized workers percentage of the total population is much higher than the unemployment percentage. We have always had a set of people who want a job but for whatever reason are not looking, said Heidi Shierholz, economist with the Economic Policy Institute. But this recession was so severe and job opportunities are still so weak, this group is growing because of that. unemployed +all persons to the 14.4% Total force + total employed partmarginally attachedreasons, labor time for economic as a percent of the civilian labor force+ all persons marginally attached to the labor force

Possible reasons for this segment of potentially employable population not finding an appropriate job could be: Faster growing aged population. Parents taking time off for their family. College student not able to find a job.

Persons marginally attached to the labor force are defined as those who currently are neither working nor looking for work, but indicate that they want and are available for a job and have looked for work sometime in the past 12 months. Discouraged workers, a subset of the marginally attached, have given a job-market related reason for not currently looking for work. Persons employed part-time for economic reasons are those who want and are available for full-time work but have had to settle for part-time employment. Updated population controls are introduced annually with the release of January data.

Skill shortages are already severe in specific occupations. High in demand resumes belong to those in the fields of radiation, recreational, and occupational therapists, and also physicians, veterinarians, and dentists. The unemployment rate for all of these occupations was below 1.0% in 2011, a year in which the overall unemployment was above 8.0%. Healthcare staffing buyers tend to use temporary labor reluctantly, typically only when they cant find a permanent worker.
U.S. health care spending grew 3.9 percent in 2011, reaching $2.7 trillion or $8,680 per person.

DCR Survey: Temp Contribution Through Social Media and Crowdsourcing, 2012-13
DCR Workforce recently conducted a survey comprised of all segments of industry participation, administered to executives at various management and operational levels. The goal of the survey was to monitor the performance of their temporary workforces over 2012-13 through conventional as well as unconventional recruiting sources. Below are some of the results, looking at overall temporary positions filled, and fill rates by crowdsourcing and social media recruiting.
Of course, that last step of measuring results is more difficult than it seems, given the fast pace and constant evolution of social media. However, social media has its own universal metrics through which it can be evaluated. Measurement is an important role in the steps for deriving a solid social media strategy. This is because the field involves large volumes of data, some structured and a lot highly unstructured. Social media data 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Volume (the count of the responses you get) Reach (how deep and wide you can reach people) Engagement (people getting involved with your brand) Influence (how many people actually can take action on your recommendations) Share of voice (you versus your competitor)
mining and drawing inferences from this data is becoming at the top of a multibillion dollar industry, and accounts for a very challenging and innovative section of analytics. Big data analysis, Hadoop technologies, deployment of advance algorithm for data mining, and cloud computing are the supporting technologies for social media. They have emerged and are likely to remain in very high demand in the coming decade.

Methodology
The DCR Wage Index is developed to assess the relative movements of temporary wage rates in the U.S. economy. The wage rates for temporary workers or contingent workforce are based on payments made by staffing firms to these workers based upon hours worked. Data collected from sources such as Bureau of Labor Standards (BLS) and other government sites as well as an internal pool of staffing companies and consultants, is aggregated and classified based on regions and skill categories, to arrive at an aggregate index. The baseline for the index is set at 100 for January 2007. Index value for a particular month indicates relative wages with the said baseline and is representative in terms of direction and scale of change. Five years of data has been included to observe seasonal patterns and distinguish seasonality from long-term wage movements. The data and the model has been further refined over last six months. DCR Wage Index combines the exhaustive data from BLS with practical and more recent developments and data from on-field consultants and clients, to provide timely near-term indications of trends and consistent long-term actionable and objective information.
Source Data
DCR Work Index uses multiple economic variables to ensure the robustness of its forecasts and cross-validation of trends. Key data sources and parameters of interest included and influencing the index are: Unemployment data Gross Domestic Product Prime rate of interest New and seasonal Job openings Non Form employment Job Opening All Export All Import Average Hourly Earnings of All Employees Total Private Aggregate consultant data on job market parameters
