A labour-market survey follows people in a city region who are unemployed after choosing to leave paid work.
| Measure | Number of people or vacancies |
|---|---|
| People who left paid work during the previous eight weeks and are currently applying for jobs | 12,000 |
| Advertised job vacancies in the city region | 15,000 |
| People from the first group who had entered paid work six weeks later | 9,000 |
Using the data, explain which type of unemployment is most likely represented by these workers and whether the city region could still be at full employment.
