Explanation:

The unemployment rate (U-3) reports on the number of jobless people that are actively seeking employment. The bureau of labor statistics considers individuals who have sought employment in the past four weeks. The bureau defines an unemployed person as one that is jobless but has actively sought work in the last four weeks.

This unemployment rate (U3) is the most reported and followed. The report is released monthly. The U3 unemployment rate is criticized for not being inclusive of all jobless people. For instance, it does not include discouraged job seekers or those not looking for work due to other factors such as caring for the sick and elderly at home.
