  7. Abstract:
  8. In this research, it has been tried to answer jobless growth in Iran’s economy between 2005 to 2011. At first, the added value and employment of various major sectors will be investigated. It will be observed that two major sectors, agriculture and industry, have been experienced jobless growth. After having been investigated more, it will be shown that the major part loss of the job in the agriculture is relating to unwaged family workers. In the industry about all the loss of the job has been happened in the textile sub-sector. In these two sectors, the most of the separated people has been inactive. Getting inactive and not being allocated of the separated people have been led to jobless growth. It will be explained that the substitution of machinery capital for labor has caused the jobless growth in this sector. In the textile, the import of the consumed goods has crowded out the national production and so the employment in this sector has decreased. Since the being stayed inactive of the separated people and not being reallocated of them have led to the jobless growth, a choice model will be applied to investigate how much the significant factors of supply and demand side are effective on separated people’s decision of whether they participate or not. The results show that age, education level, gender, wage, destruction rate and the hours which work in the previous job have a significant effect on the separated people’s participation in job market
