Latest Updates

Private businesses in the US added 183K workers to their payrolls in January 2025, higher than an upwardly revised 176K in December 2024 and above forecasts of 150K. Hiring momentum Q4 carried into January with some exceptions, including manufacturing. "We had a strong start to 2025 but it masked a dichotomy in the labor market. Consumer-facing industries drove hiring, while job growth was weaker in business services and production", Nela Richardson, Chief Economist, ADP, said. The service-producing sector added 190K jobs, led by trade/transportation/utilities (56K); leisure/hospitality (54K); education/health services (20K); information (18K); professional/business services (14K); and financial activities (13K). The goods-producing sector lost 6K jobs due to manufacturing (-13K) which offset job gains in natural resources/mining (4K) and construction (3K). Meanwhile, annual pay growth for job-stayers was 4.7% and pay growth for job-changers was 6.8%.
