OVEREMPLOYMENT: The condition in which resources are more actively engaged in the production of goods and services than they are willing and able to at current prices. This condition is most important for short-run macroeconomic activity and short-run aggregate market analysis. In particular, overemployment is a key reason for the positive slope of the short-run aggregate supply curve. Overemployment is a primary reason the macroeconomy is able to produce MORE than full-employment production in the short run. Another reason is natural unemployment.

UNEMPLOYED

The condition in which a resource (especially labor) is NOT actively engaged in a productive activity, but IS actively seeking employment.

The other two BLS categories are employed persons and not in the labor force.
