According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, individuals who are not actively seeking employment (such as retirees) are not included in the labor force. Therefore, Lauren, who has retired and is not looking for work, would not be included in the labor force. The other options listed (A and C) both involve individuals who are either currently on layoff or actively seeking work, so they would be included in the labor force.
