Let’s carefully break this down.
The question asks: “A type of unemployment which occurs due to technological progress”.
Step 1: Recall the types of unemployment
Frictional unemployment – happens when people are temporarily between jobs, like moving from one job to another. ✅ Short-term, normal.
Residual unemployment – occurs in certain sectors due to seasonal factors or lack of development.
Structural unemployment – happens when there is a mismatch between workers’ skills and job requirements, often caused by technological progress or changes in industry. ✅
Mass unemployment – occurs when unemployment is widespread across the economy, usually due to economic crises.
Step 2: Identify the correct type
Technological progress can replace human labor with machines, leading to unemployment in certain industries. This is exactly structural unemployment.
✅ Step 3: Answer
C. structural unemployment
