Greece's jobless rate rose to 24.4% in January from an upwardly revised 24.3% in the previous month, statistics agency ELSTAT said today.
The number of officially unemployed reached 1.169 million people.
Hardest hit were young people aged 15 to 24 years as their jobless rate increased to 51.9% from 50.5% in the same month a year earlier.
The Greek jobless rate hit a record high of 27.9% in September 2013.
Unemployment has come down from record highs but remains more than double the euro zone's average of 10.3% in January.
Greece's economy expanded slightly in the last three months of 2015 as national output grew 0.1% quarter-on-quarter, driven by private consumption and investment. It shrank 0.3% in the year as a whole.
