According to Phillips curve at full potential of the GDP in an economy, there is inverse relationship between unemployment and inflation in the short - run.
According to Phillips curve, workers do not expect inflation in the short run,and therefore, even with higher price level, it takes them longer to realize an increase in price level, so they are ready to work at previous wage level, however in real terms wages have fallen down.
Likewise, if they expected inflation, they would demand higher wages to compensate for higher price level, and therefore, employment will not increase.
