WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - The U.S. labor market was weaker than expected in March, the government said Friday. The economy lost 80,000 nonfarm payroll jobs last month, according to a survey of business establishments, about the same as the 76,000 lost in February and more than the 60,000 expected to be lost by economists surveyed by MarketWatch. Payroll growth in February and January was revised lower by a total of 67,000. The separate survey of households showed a rise in unemployment of 434,000. As a result, the unemployment rate popped to 5.1% from 4.8% in the prior month. This is the highest unemployment rate since September 2005.
