Description/Abstract Unemployment and underemployment have become one of the world`s major problems, especially in early industrial countries.^At the same time, the terminological and conceptual fluctuations in this field have grown in intensity.^This paper discusses the economic, sociological, and psychological meanings of employment; the question to what extent it should be seen as a self-purpose; the concepts of economically active population and productive employment; the relationship between productivity, technological change, and employment; the impact of education; human resources and their ``utilization;`` the economic, sociological, and psychological meanings of unemployment and underemployment; the social costs of unemployment; and the relationships between development, income distribution, and employment.
