The supply of labour includes all those people who are economically active i.e. who are either working or looking for work including school leavers, that is all those who are participating in the labour force. Graduates of tertiary institutions provide supply of labour into the labour market annually and this has been increasing every year.
Demand for labour arises mainly from employers' need for workers to produce goods and services. Demand for labour on the other hand is determined by demand for employers' products, export demand, and government policies among other factors.
