BEIJING (Reuters) - China's urban registered unemployment rate was 4.04 percent at the end of September, Ministry Of Human Resources and Social Security said in a briefing on Tuesday.

Premier Li Keqiang said at China's annual parliament in March that China will create 10 million new jobs and hold the urban unemployment rate below 4.5 percent in 2016.
