The previous value was greatly revised from 2.369 million to 43.65438+0.4 million. The growth of the number of workers has obviously slowed down, which shows that the increase in the number of infected cases in COVID-19 is inhibiting the job market and economic recovery.

The sharp slowdown in the growth rate of the number of workers is consistent with other data. These data show that work mall rebounded within a few months after the lifting of the ban, but now it is in danger of retreating. The number of people applying for unemployment benefits rose for two weeks in a row, which forced the plan to show some amendments from the beginning.

The number of new employees of ADP was outstanding in May and June, but it dropped significantly in July.

The president of ADP, a work data company, said that we have seen that the economic slowdown has affected enterprises in all planning and industries. In July, the recovery of the job market slowed down.
