US unemployment has risen to 8.1 per cent, the highest level since 1983, according to a US government report.
The US labour department report said on Friday that 651,000 jobs were lost from the struggling US economy in February.
Al Jazeera's John Terrett in New York said the figures were worse than many analysts had been expecting.
The monthly report on the labour market is seen as one of the best indicators of the state of the US economy.
