<\/div>\nIt’s not exactly “Happy Days Are Here Again,” but private sector employment increased by nearly 2.4 million jobs from May to June, according to the June ADP National Employment Report<\/a> released Wednesday (July 1).<\/p>\n That’s in sharp contrast to an early May report from the same source<\/a>, Automatic Data Processing (ADP<\/a>) and Moody’s Analytics, showing massive job losses when the pandemic hit with full force. ADP’s report for April had private-sector companies in the United States losing 20.2 million jobs.<\/p>\n The massive job losses were tied to the pandemic and shelter-in-place orders and the associated storefront closings that swept much of the country.<\/p>\n Compared to that, things are really looking up now.<\/p>\n “Small-business hiring picked up in the month of June,” Ahu Yildirmaz<\/a>, vice president and co-head of the ADP Research Institute, said in a press release<\/a>. “As the economy slowly continues to recover, we are seeing a significant rebound in industries that once experienced the greatest job losses. In fact, 70 percent of the jobs added from May to June were in the leisure and hospitality, trade and construction industries.”<\/p>\n By company size, small businesses picked up 937,000 jobs. That covers companies ranging from one to 49 employees. In April, those businesses lost 6 million jobs.<\/p>\n In June, the smallest-size companies, with up to 19 employees, alone picked up 574,000 employees.<\/p>\n For their part, medium-sized businesses, with 50 to 499 employees, hired 559,000 employees.<\/p>\n Large businesses hired 873,000 employees. The largest businesses, those with over 1,000 employees, hired 772,000 workers.<\/p>\n The industry sectors of natural resources and mining lost 26,000 jobs. Another job-losing category was that covering management of companies\/enterprises, which lost 29,000 jobs.<\/p>\n Back in April, the service industry was hardest hit, with 16 million jobs lost. More than half of that came from jobs lost at hotels and restaurants<\/a>.<\/p>\n The ADP National Employment Report uses ADP payroll data, covering 460,000 U.S. clients employing nearly 26 million workers in the U.S.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Tags:<\/b> Pymnts<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"See Campaign: <\/strong>https:\/\/www.pymnts.com\/coronavirus\/2020\/restaurant-operators-on-life-before-during-and-after-covid-19\/<\/a>
