WASHINGTON - Growth in private-sector payrolls sharply accelerated in November, led by the service-producing sector and small businesses, according to the ADP employment report released Wednesday. Employment in the private sector rose by a seasonally adjusted 206,000 jobs in November - the largest gain since last December and almost twice the average increase in recent months. The October level was revised up to 130,000 from a prior estimate of 110,000.
NEW YORK, July 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Portfolio.com, the national business news site for small and mid-sized business (SMB) executives, today unveiled results from a five year review of state employment trends conducted with American City Business Journals. The review analyzed private-sector short- and long-term employment patterns across the country, using U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data from the past five years with the objective to determine the relative economic strength of the nation's 50 states and the District of Columbia. The economic recession hit the nation hard and the number of unemployed Americans in major states like California and Nevada has been on the rise. We hope that this study will provide helpful information for individuals on locations that offer the most job op...
WASHINGTON - Private-sector employment rose in January, and "strength was evident" in all major industries and sizes of business, according to Automatic Data Processing's employment report released Wednesday. The ADP report showed that private-sector employment rose 187,000, with the service-producing sector gaining 166,000 and the goods-producing sector increasing 21,000.
Little growth in U.S. private sector jobs put a damper on the surge in employment in May that added 431,000 new jobs nationally. Last month's employment spurt was the largest jump in jobs in 10 years. But temporary hirings for the U.S. Census were responsible for much of the increase, making up 95 percent of the added jobs, or 411,000, according to data released Friday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
IT'S a talking point oft repeated, even by the president himself, most recently in a speech before the U.S. Chamber of Commerce when Obama chided businesses for sitting on pots of reserves instead of hiring more workers. But there is an underlying issue not being addressed. Not even a pot of $400 million in government incentives could get California businesses to add personnel and chip away at the state's whopping 12.5 percent unemployment rate. That fund, created in a 2009 bill by L.A. City Councilman Paul Krekorian when he was an assemblyman representing Burbank still has about $360 million left in it unspent.
Among the findings: * The private colleges and universities directly purchased goods and services in Pennsylvania totaling $5.4 billion in 2009. * Students attending independent higher education institutions in the state directly spend almost $1 billion annually. * Independent colleges and universities pump more salary and wage dollars into Pennsylvania's economy - $4.58 billion - than do any of the following: law offices, commercial banks, restaurants, nursing care facilities, grocery stores and engineering service firms. * Employees of Pennsylvania's independent higher education sector pay more than $130 million yearly in state income taxes and over $100 million in taxes to local governments. * Over the last few years, private colleges and universities have annually spent over $500 mi...
The California employment year in review created by Bing Bai, a faculty fellow at the University of Redlands, School of Business' Institute for Spatial Economic Analysis, says there is some good news in terms of private sector employment in California. Employment growth has accelerated somewhat, is more broad-based in terms of geographic spread, and has extended from the coastal regions to some Inland areas. There are even some ZIP codes that have more jobs now than they had at the height of the last boom in August 2007.
