CHINA'S urban unemployment rate stood at 4.1 percent at the end of September, with 9.05 million registered as unemployed, a Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security official said yesterday.
The rate dropped 0.1 percentage point from 4.2 percent at the end of June, said Yin Chengji, spokesman for the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security.
In the first nine months, a total of 9.31 million new jobs were created in urban areas, exceeding the target of 9 million for 2010.
At the end of 2009, China's registered unemployment rate was 4.3 percent. The government aims to keep the urban registered unemployment rate below 4.6 percent this year.
The central government has taken measures to boost employment this year, helping university graduates and migrant workers from rural areas find jobs through internships and vocational training, Yin said.
Some 12.54 million people joined government-subsidized vocational training programs in the first nine months, of which 4.71 million were migrant workers, he said.
About 390,000 university graduates received vocational training while 790,000 received lessons on how to start businesses, Yin said.
