Survival analysis is a class of statistical method aimed at studying the occurrence and timing of events of interest. The analysis is propelled by event while time is the central operator. In medicine, event may be death, relapse, in which wise, time may be time to death and time to relapse respectively. In economics, the event may be employment while time is time to employment, that is, unemployment duration. In Civil Engineering, the event may be completion of a project while time is project duration; the event may also be appearance of a crack on a building while the time istime that lapses between project completion and appearance of the crack. It is thus, a concept applicable to virtually all aspects of human endeavour where event and time to event are clearly defined. Unemployment duration study is very important as it explains changes in the labour market situation. Such a study is capable of informing policy makers about effectiveness of policies formulated to tackle unemployment in an economy. An unemployment duration study via survival analytical approach that signifies that unemployment duration has reduced significantly will naturally be pleasing to the government. A contrary result will suggest that government approach to tackling unemployment needs to me revisited. The need for such study from time to time can therefore, not be overemphasized. A large amount of efforts has gone into survival analysis research. Although most of the efforts seem to be in the medical sciences, some applications have been made in other areas also. Leo and Go (1977) reviewed the common statistical technique employed to analyze survival data in public research; Tatsiramos (2006)studied the effect of unemployment insurance on unemployment duration and the subsequent employment stability using mixed proportional hazard model; Blanchard and Diamond (2008) examined unemployment duration dependence and suggested that this affects both the matching and the wage function. Daniela-Emanuela and Cirnu (2014) studied unemployment duration in Romania using survival methods; Novella and Duvivier (2015) examined the relationship between unemployment duration and education in Belgium;Oujezsky, Horvath, and Skorpil (2016) applied survival methods to analyze botnet command and control traffic using Kaplan-Meier estimator. Echeburua, Gomez and Freixa (2017) examined schizophrenia patients with gambling disorder using Cox survival model. These research objectives are to apply Kaplan-Meier survival model to unemployment duration data and to also compare the unemployment duration experience of males and females.
