Mohammad Ashraf Malik

Unemployment is known as the great cause of different psychological problems and physical as well. Due to the prolonged period of unemployment a person lost control on himself and feels weak because of financial crunch and redundancy. It has been also observed by different researchers that an unemployed person lacks the self-identity, becomes isolated from the society and even himself also. So this paper is an extensive effort to find out some relevant literature regarding alienation in unemployed adults by reviewing the previous literature.
