TOKYO - Japan's job availability ratio for November fell 0.02 point from the previous month to 1.28, a level not seen since July last year, as persistently high prices weighed on recruitment activities in some service sectors, government data showed Tuesday.

Separate data showed the country's unemployment rate, meanwhile, stood at 2.5 percent in the reporting month, unchanged from the previous month.
