Forme de chômage d'une durée persistante. Il peut affecter soit des personnes, dont certaines caractéristiques physiques, mentales, ou professionnelles rendent l'embauchage presque impossible, soit des régions dont l'état de sous-développement économique se manifeste par un chômage abondant et prolongé. En ce dernier cas, on considère que seule une action vigoureuse de l'État, ou même le transfert massif des populations, peuvent apporter un remède efficace à ce type de chômage. 4, record 1, French, - ch%C3%B4mage%20chronique
