Experts have said that the bad weather in the US played a role in the US jobs market as employers added the lowest number of workers in the December month compared over a period of three years.
The Labor Department reported Friday that the employers added just 74,000 new jobs, which is much lower than analyst expectations. The increase was at its lowest level in almost three years. However, experts have said that the conditions are temporary as the cold weather might have have influenced the numbers.
The data showed that unemployment rate fell 0.3 percentage point to 6.7 percent, the Labor Department said on Friday. The rate is the lowest since October 2008 and experts have said that the fall is mainly due to the people leaving the labor force.
The official data has shown that 38,000 new jobs were added in November than previously reported. There was also a decline in the average work week, according to the report.
