3 . Labour force is the part of a nation’s population that works for pay or is actively looking for work. This group produces most of the nation’s goods and services, and its size and productivity determine the nation’s economic （经济） growth. The labour force of the United States increased from 2 million in 1800 to about 118 million in the mid 1900’s. This growth helped turn the United States from a largely agricultural country to an advanced industrial one.

Groups not in the labour force include disabled persons, full time housewives, retired （退休） people and students. And the labour force does not include discouraged ones who have given up looking for work because they think none can be got.

The United Nations uses the term “economically active population” instead of “labour force”. The economically active population includes people of all ages who hold jobs or are looking for jobs.
