Jobs Up in August, not Down
|
[Bloomberg] U.S. companies added the most jobs in four months in August while jobless claims stayed low last week, reports showed Thursday, suggesting the labor market remains healthy despite a slowdown in manufacturing and global weakness.
 Businesses’ payrolls increased by 195,000 after a downwardly revised 142,000 gain in July, according to the ADP Research Institute. The latest data compared with the median estimate of economists for a 148,000 increase. A separate Labor Department report Thursday showed filings for unemployment benefits were little changed last week, near the lowest level since 1969.
Contrast with Mediocre Jobs Report from the Dept. of Labor Friday, and reported at Rantburg.
Job growth continued at a tepid pace in August, with nonfarm payrolls increasing by just 130,000 thanks in large part to the temporary hiring of Census workers, the Labor Department reported Friday. The good news came from the August ADP National Employment Report.
Broadly distributed to the public each month, free of charge, the ADP National Employment Report is produced by the ADP Research Institute in collaboration with Moody’s Analytics. The report, which is derived from ADP’s actual payroll data, measures the change in total nonfarm private employment each month on a seasonally-adjusted basis
