4,400,000 workers have lost their job in the United States since the recession began in December 2007. Monthly jobless rates keep on presenting staggering figures with February’s official figures pointing to a collossal 651,000 people who have lost their jobs.
The unemployment rate, which is calculated using a survey of households, jumped half a percentage point to 8.1 percent, the highest since December 1983 and slightly above expectations for an 8.0 percent rate. Some economists think it could hit 10 percent by the end of next year.
Construction companies eliminated 104,000 jobs. Factories axed 168,000. Retailers cut nearly 40,000. Professional and business services got rid of 180,000, with 78,000 jobs lost at temporary-help agencies. Financial companies reduced payrolls by 44,000. Leisure and hospitality firms chopped 33,000 positions.
