Estados Unidos Folha de Pagamento Não-Agrícola

The US economy added 227K jobs in November 2024, marking a strong recovery from the upwardly revised 36K gain in October, which was heavily influenced by Boeing strikes and the disruptions caused by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Figures came better than forecasts of 200K, as employment trended up in health care (54K), leisure and hospitality (53K), government (33K), and social assistance (19K). Also, employment increased in transportation equipment manufacturing (32K), reflecting the return of workers who were on strike. On the other hand, retail trade lost 28K jobs and employment showed little change in mining, quarrying, and oil and gas extraction; construction; wholesale trade; transportation and warehousing; information; financial; professional and business services. Figures for September were also revised up and with these revisions, employment in September and October combined is 56K higher than previously reported. In 2024, payroll employment increase by an average of 186K.
