According to the ADP National Employment Report for October, 2025, private sector employment decreased by 42k jobs and pay was up 4.5% year-over-year. The ADP National Employment Report is an independent and high-frequency view of the private-sector labor market based on the aggregated and anonymized payroll data of more than 25 million U.S. employees.

Meanwhile, pay growth has been largely flat for more than a year, indicating that shifts in supply and demand are balanced.” Said ADP chief economist Dr. Nela Richardson.
