| dc.description | It is important to recognize that employment is a first line necessity through which individuals and households at large earn a living. What this implies is that a person who is not in employment is unable to meet his or her and family’s material requirements such as those of adequate nutritional intake, education, housing, health, etc. But it also implies that he or she tends to experience a sense of social exclusion, inadequacy and most unfortunately the psychological pain of inability to provide for him or herself and family. | en |
