Abstract
This paper examines labour force partieipation and unemployment issues in relatian to employment and unemployment relations by using three indicators developed by OECD (rates of labour force participation, unemployment rates by age and sex, unemployment rates by educational levels). These issues are dealt with in terms of sex, age and educatian variables emphasising woman dimension. The data used in this study was mostly gathered from the United Nations and OECD sources and national data was obtained from the data of the Institute of State Staıisties (ISS). The sample countries from which regular statistical data are obtained show that there is a signifieant relationship between education and labour force participation rates. It is accepted that edu ca tion is an important tool to reduce unemployment, on the other hand, it is emphasised that the relationships between education and unemployment are more complex and there is a difficulty of making generalisation in this respect. When the issue is taken into consideration in regard to woman, it can be said that the higher the educationallevel of the woman is, the higher the rate of woman participation into labour force is, in return, especially educational inadequacy constitutes a disadvantage for the women in adapting to urban economy.
