New Jersey's Jobless Rate Edges Up to 9.2 Percent
New Jersey's Jobless Rate Edges Up to 9.2 Percent
New Jersey added 6,800 private sector jobs in February, but that wasn't enough to reduce the state's unemployment rate.
In
fact, New Jersey's jobless rate rose to 9.2 percent last month, up from
9.1 percent in January. State officials said that's because more people
jumped back into the job market to look for work and are now counted as
part of the unemployed. People who are jobless but haven't been
actively seeking work are not counted in government unemployment
figures.
New Jersey's construction industry saw its biggest monthly job gain
in more than five years, adding 3,000 jobs, while the retail, health
care and social services sectors shed jobs in February.
In New York City and New York State, unemployment rates stood still last month at 8.9 and 8.2 percent, respectively.

Re: New Jersey's Jobless Rate Edges Up to 9.2 Percent
Does not surprise me. I never stopped looking - I am sure a lot of people in NJ did not stop looking either! But we are "sucking ut up" like everyone else. LOL
