Full time unemployment falls; still high

Friday?s employment situation report showed that in November the full time unemployment rate declined to 9.2% of the civilian workforce but remains near the highest rate seen in 41 years.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics considers full time workers to be those ?who have expressed a desire to work full time (35 hours or more per week) or are on layoff from full-time jobs?.

Full time jobless workers currently account for roughly 88.5% of all unemployed workers.
