Answers
Agriculture sector. Casual workers in the service sector.
Explanation:
Disguised unemployment mostly found in rural Agriculture area or in rural areas where most of the people are involved in agriculture activities. Disguised unemployment or hidden unemployment can be defined as the situation when a worker is working but his ability is not fully utilized. In such a situation a worker remains engaged in a particular work because he has nothing to do better than that. In this situation, the worker does not have any choice, but there is a compulsion to do a particular job. For example, in rural areas, it is often observed in the agricultural sector that many people work on the same farm on which only two workers are required. So in this situation even if we take out some people from the farm business, the production capacity will not be affected.
