English term or phrase: frictional unemployment
Definition from John S. Irons, Washington DC:
Short-term joblessness associated with mobility. A person who leaves a job to find something better is considered frictionally unemployed. This type of unemployment characterizes workers subject to seasonal work (e.g., construction, agricultural, winter recreational workers, etc.).

Example sentence(s):
  • Technological change often reduces frictional unemployment, for example: the internet made job searches cheaper and more comprehensive. EconomicExpert.com
  • Frictional unemployment is that unemployment caused by information or search costs. Usually when a person quits, is fired, or enters the labor market, there are jobs available for which that person is qualified. The person will be frictionally unemployed because it takes time (and effort) to find the jobs that are available. Robert Schenk
  • Finding the open positions and workers available is a large factor in frictional unemployment, even in this Great Recession. newsneconomics.com

frikcinis nedarbas


Definition from Anglų-Lietuvių žodynas:
Tai nedarbo forma, atsirandanti gyventojams laisvanoriškai keičiant gyvenamąją vietą ir profesiją; atleidus ir ieškant naujo darbo, pirmą kartą atėjus į darbo rinką.

Example sentence(s):
  • Trečia problema – teorijos apie nedarbą „esant visiškam užimtumui“, vadinamąjį frikcinį nedarbą (frictional unemployment), nebuvimas. Nors visų buvo pripažįstama, kad visiškas užimtumas nėra nulinis nedarbas, teorijos, tiksliai apibrėžiančios frikcinį nedarbą lemiančius veiksnius, nebuvo. - Nobelio 2006 m. ekonomikos... laureatai

Taip pat gali būti vadinamas laikinuoju arba trumpalaikiu nedarbu.

Yes  Ugne Vitkute (X): Sutinku, nes taip vartojama ir Eur-lex'e. Bet man iš tikro 'epizodinis nedarbas' skamba gražiau.
