According to today's ADP National Employment Report�, private
sector employment decreased by 491,000 in April. The ADP National
Employment Report, created by ADP� Employer Services, a division of
Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (ADP), in partnership with
Macroeconomic Advisers, LLC, is derived from actual payroll data
and measures the change in total nonfarm private employment each
month.
Nonfarm Private Employment Highlights -- April Report:
-- Total employment: -491,000
-- Small businesses* -183,000
-- Medium businesses** -231,000
-- Large businesses*** -77,000
-- Goods-producing sector: -262,000
-- Service-providing sector: -229,000
Addendum:
-- Manufacturing industry: -159,000
* Small businesses represent payrolls with 1-49 employees
** Medium businesses represent payrolls with 50-499 employees
*** Large businesses represent payrolls with more than 499 employees
According to Joel Prakken, Chairman of Macroeconomic Advisers,
LLC, "Nonfarm private employment decreased 491,000 from March to
April 2009 on a seasonally adjusted basis, according to the ADP
National Employment Report. Despite some recent indications that
stock prices, consumer spending, and housing activity may be
bottoming out, employment, which usually trails overall economic
activity, is likely to decline for at least several more months,
although perhaps not as rapidly as during the last six months."
Prakken added, "April's ADP Report estimates nonfarm private
employment in the service-providing sector fell by 229,000.
Employment in the goods-producing sector declined 262,000, with
employment in the manufacturing sector dropping 159,000, its
thirty-eighth consecutive monthly decline."
"Large businesses, defined as those with 500 or more workers,
saw employment decline by 77,000, while medium-size businesses with
between 50 and 499 workers declined 231,000. Employment among
small-size businesses, defined as those with fewer than 50 workers,
declined 183,000. The employment declines among medium- and
small-size businesses indicate that the recession continues to
spread beyond manufacturing and housing-related activities to
almost every area of the economy," said Prakken.
Prakken went on to say, "In April, construction employment
dropped 95,000. This was its twenty-seventh consecutive monthly
decline, and brings the total decline in construction jobs since
the peak in January 2007 to 1,261,000. April's decline, however,
was the smallest since November of 2008."
The matched sample used to develop the ADP National Employment
Report was derived from ADP data which, during the last six months
of 2008, averaged approximately 400,000 payrolls representing
nearly 24 million U.S. employees. This approximately represents the
size of the matched sample used this month.
Small Business Highlights -- April Report:
Due to the important contribution small businesses make to
economic growth, employment data that is specific to businesses
with fewer than 50 employees will be reported in the ADP Small
Business Report� each month. The ADP Small Business Report is a
subset of the ADP National Employment Report.
-- Total small business employment: -183,000
-- Goods-producing sector: -91,000 small business jobs
-- Service-providing sector: -92,000 small business jobs
Private employment among small businesses decreased by 183,000
in April, according to the ADP Small Business Report released
today. Additional information about small business employment,
including charts on monthly job growth and employment levels, along
with historical data, is available at
http://www.smallbusinessreport.adp.com.
"Employment among small-size businesses, defined as those with
fewer than 50 workers, declined 183,000. Though job losses are
likely to continue for several more months, April's number
indicates these losses may not be as severe as those experienced
during the last six months," said Joel Prakken.

About the ADP National Employment Report�
The ADP National Employment Report, sponsored by ADP�, was
developed and is maintained by Macroeconomic Advisers, LLC. It is a
measure of employment derived from an anonymous subset of roughly
500,000 U.S. business clients. During the last six months of 2008,
this subset represented approximately 400,000 U.S. business clients
and nearly 24 million U.S. employees working in all private
industrial sectors. The ADP Small Business Report� is a monthly
estimate of private nonfarm employment among companies in the
United States with 1-49 employees and is a subset of the ADP
National Employment Report. The data for both reports is collected
for pay periods that can be interpolated to include the week of the
12th of each month, and processed with statistical methodologies
similar to those used by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics to
compute employment from its monthly survey of establishments. Due
to this processing, this subset is modified to make it indicative
of national employment levels; therefore, the resulting employment
changes computed for the ADP National Employment Report are not
representative of changes in ADP's total base of U.S. business
clients.
For a description of the underlying data and the statistical
properties of the series, please see "ADP National Employment
Report: Development Methodology" at
