Frictional UnemploymentFrictional unemployment occurs when a worker moves from one job to another. It is a result of imperfect information in the labor market, because if job seekers knew that they would be employed for a particular job vacancy, almost no time would be lost in getting a new job, eliminating this form of unemployment.MLS 2-F: Group 1
