The Role of Private Sectors in Reducing Unemployment

Abstract

Employment generation is crucial in reducing poverty and boosting economic activity, which, in turn, leads to economic growth. The high unemployment rate is not only a cause for concern but also a national embarrassment that requires significant action. Unemployment in both developed and developing countries creates numerous problems for both individuals and the government. The objective of this study was to determine the role of private sectors in reducing unemployment in Nangarhar province, Afghanistan. The study data was collected from 50 respondents working in different private sectors in Nangarhar province through a Standardized structured questionnaire. The data was analyzed using Jamovi through the correlation method. The data's reliability was also tested and was found to be 0.829. After analyzing the data, the study's results showed that there is a strong positive relationship between private sectors and unemployment reduction. A strong positive correlation of 0.549 was observed, indicating that as one variable increases, the other tends to increase as well. This correlation is statistically significant at a p-value of 0.001, suggesting a significant relationship between the two factors.
