To achieve the research objective, the research sought to investigate the concept of unemployment in the official meaning, which, really reflects the open unemployment, as well as the concept of unemployment in scientific terms, which, on the other hand, reflects the real unemployment.

The research also aimed to examine the methodology of the measurement of the real unemployment rate, as well as the evolution of its concept, in addition to some economic changes relating thereto, during the period in research question.

The research used both the analytical descriptive approach and the statistical analysis method and the mathematical method in measuring the real unemployment rate in the Libyan economy during the period from (1962-2012).

The research findings have shown that, both rates of open unemployment (actual unemployment) and real unemployment in the Libyan economy are significantly rising.
