U.S. Unemployment Rate Rises, a Warning Sign for the Economy

"What to know about the report.

The unemployment rate rose in November, a warning sign for the health of a labor market that has been strained by federal layoffs and rising costs.

The jobless rate last month rose to 4.6 percent up from 4.4 percent in September, the last month for which officials had a full picture of the labor force before the weekslong government shutdown. It is the highest unemployment rate since September 2021, when the economy was emerging from the pandemic, and an increase from 4.0 percent in January.

Employers added 64,000 jobs in November, partly reversing a decline in October. The federal government has lost 168,000 jobs over the past two months, as workers hit by deferred resignations came off the payroll. Wage growth has also slowed notably, to a level not seen since 2021, a measure that comes at a time when an increasing number of Americans are expressing pessimism about the economy."
