The ADP National Employment Report^SM is a measure of nonfarm private employment, based on a subset of aggregated and anonymous payroll data that represents approximately 392,000 of ADP's 500,000 U.S. business clients and roughly 24 million employees working in all 19 of the major North American Industrial Classification (NAICS) private industrial sectors. The ADP National Employment Report was developed to help meet the need for additional timely and accurate estimates of short-term movements in the national labor market among economists, financial professionals, and government policy-makers. Because ADP pays 1-in-6 private sector employees in the United States every pay period across a broad range of industries, firm sizes, and geographies, it has a unique and significant perspective on the U.S. labor market.

The ADP National Employment Report

April, 2008

Nonfarm private employment increased 10,000 from March to April 2008 on a seasonally adjusted basis, according to the ADP National Employment Report^TM. The estimated change in employment from February to March was revised down from an increase of 8,000 to an increase of 3,000.

Though April’s estimate for a small increase in employment is above consensus forecasts of an outright decline, it nevertheless suggests that a sharp deceleration of employment continues.
