    Why does unemployment have a detrimental effect on the overall growth of an economy?                                        (3)          

    Answer:

    Unemployment tends to increase economic overload, i.e., dependence of the unemployed persons on the people who are working, goes up. This adversely affects the quality of life of people, as they have to live at subsistence level, which leads to poor health and even increase in school dropouts. Ultimately this has a detrimental effect on the growth of the economy if it continues, as it wastes resources who can be gainfully employed.
