      Question

      In India, the official measurement of unemployment

      through the Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS) uses which key concept for its annual estimates?
      A Weekly Status Approach Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Current Daily Status Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Usual Status (principal + subsidiary) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Labour Force Participation Rate Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Job-to-population ratio Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The Usual Status approach in PLFS counts a person as employed if they worked for a significant part of the preceding 365 days. It combines principal and subsidiary activities to capture chronic unemployment trends, forming the basis for annual labor-market estimates used by the Ministry of Labour.
