According to today's ADP National Employment Report®, private
sector employment decreased by 20,000 in February. The ADP National
Employment Report, created by 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 -- February Report:
-- Total employment: -20,000
-- Small businesses* -18,000
-- Medium businesses** +8,000
-- Large businesses*** -10,000
-- Goods-producing sector: -37,000
-- Service-providing sector: +17,000
Addendum:
" Manufacturing industry: +3,000
* 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
Note: all data included in the ADP National Employment Report is based on
size of payroll. In some cases, small and medium-size payrolls belong to
businesses employing more workers than indicated by the size grouping.
According to Joel Prakken, Chairman of Macroeconomic Advisers,
LLC, "Nonfarm private employment decreased 20,000 from January to
February 2010 on a seasonally adjusted basis, according to the ADP
National Employment Report. The February employment decline was the
smallest since employment began falling in February of 2008. If the
recent trend continues, and given first-quarter GDP growth of 5.9%,
private employment could rise next month for the first time in two
years."
Prakken added, "In February, two large blizzards smothered parts
of the east coast during the reference period for the BLS
establishment survey. The adverse weather had only a very small
effect on today's ADP Report due to the methodology used to
construct it. However, the adverse weather is widely expected to
depress the BLS estimate of the monthly change in employment for
February, but boost it for March."
"February's ADP Report estimates nonfarm private employment in
the service-providing sector increased by 17,000, the second
consecutive monthly increase. However, this employment growth was
not enough to offset continued losses in the goods-producing
sector. Employment in the goods-producing sector declined 37,000,
with employment in the manufacturing sector increasing by 3,000.
The employment increase in the manufacturing sector was the first
since January 2008," said Prakken.
Prakken went on to say, "Large businesses, defined as those with
500 or more workers, saw employment decline by 10,000 while
small-size businesses with fewer than 50 workers, declined 18,000.
Employment among medium-size businesses, defined as those with
between 50 and 499 workers, increased by 8,000, the first increase
in employment since January of 2008."
The matched sample used to develop the ADP National Employment
Report was derived from ADP data, which during the twelve month
period through December 2009, averaged over 360,000 U.S. business
clients and represented over 22 million U.S. employees. This
approximately represents the size of the matched sample used this
month.

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 twelve month period
through December 2009, this subset averaged over 360,000 U.S.
business clients and over 22 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
