Specifies the change in the level of those hired over the past month, excluding those hired in the agricultural sector
This indicator is published two days before the publication of the ADP employment report on the official office of human resources statistics, which provides solutions in the field of employment for companies.
Private firms in the US hired 324,000 workers in July 2023, after a downwardly revised increase of 455,000 and exceeding market expectations for a rise of 189,000. The service provision sector added 303,000 jobs, led by entertainment and hospitality (201,000), information (36,000), trade, transportation and utilities (30,000), and education and health (12,000). In addition, the commodity production sector added 21 thousand jobs, with increases in mining (48 thousand) and construction (9 thousand). However, the manufacturing sector, which is sensitive to interest rates, lost 36,000 jobs, marking the fifth consecutive month of job losses. "The economy is doing better than expected, and a healthy labor market continues to support household spending. We continue to see sluggish wage growth without widespread job losses," said Nella Richardson, chief economist at ADP.
