Carla Ross · Answer 1

Answer: structural unemployment

Because the new firm no longer had need of her services, Paulina's job was eliminated this kind of unemployment is called structural unemployment. This kind of unemployment is involuntary. This means that the person is willing and able to work but cannot find a job and such is the case with Paulina as well. Since her services were filled by someone else, this will be classified under structural unemployment.
