Despite the US unemployment rate rising to 9.4 percent last week, eight out of 10 Americans feel secure in their jobs, according to a study released last week.

The study, released by Bankrate.com, found 79 percent feel their job is secure.

Not unexpected, about 44 percent of those polled said they have received either a pay cut, reduced hours or work days, no raise or bonus or a suspension of a 401(k) match.
