    Unemployment rose in February

    Unemployment went up in February - but the government says it's still lower than it was a year ago.

    The latest monthly statistics from the Cabinet Office show 373 were looking for jobs at the end of last month, a rise of 12 people.

    It means the Island has an unemployment rate of just 0.9 per cent.

    Of those out of work, 71 per cent are men, with just 108 women signing on.
