The fall in formal sector employment has had important -- usually negative -- consequences for the people concerned. It has freq
uently led to a decline in individual and family income, social exclusion, and a worsening of the life chances of their children. . . . The decline in employment has disproportionately affected women. In general, the decline in female employment has been larger -- in some cases very much larger -- than the decline in male employment. For example, in the Czech Republic, between 1985 and 1997, the decline in female employment (11.8 per cent) was almost 10 times the decline in male employment (1.2 per cent). Which of these statements is supported by information in the text? The employment rate of a nation also has social consequences. The employment rate of a nation only affects its female population. The employment rate of a nation only affects its male population. The Czech Republic was more negatively affected than any other country.
The correct answer is A) The employment rate of a nation also has social consequences.
<em>The statement that is supported by the information of the test is “The employment rate of a nation also has social consequences.”

The text is referring to the fall in formal sector employment and the social consequences it has for citizens. The example the text is using is the case of Czech Republic between 1985-1997. The text makes reference that the decline in employment has disproportionally affected women, but they are not the only case because it refers too the men decline employment. The employment rate of a nation has social consequences such as the decline of individual and family income, social exclusion, and a worsening of the life chances of their children.
