That was a big decline from March, which saw an upwardly revised gain of 479,000.<\/p>\n<p>A dropoff in small business hiring was the primary culprit for the disappointment, as companies with fewer than 50 workers saw a decline of 120,000. The issue was particularly acute in those with fewer than 20 employees, which lost 96,000 workers on the month.<\/p>\n<p>Big business with 500 or more workers compensated for some of the decline, adding 321,000.<\/p>\n<p>Leisure and hospitality businesses led job creation with 77,000 additions. Professional and business services grew by 50,000 and education and health services contributed 48,000 to the total.<\/p>\n<p>Information services was the only sector to report a decline, losing 2,000 workers.<\/p>\n<p>In all, services-related industries comprised 202,000 of the total while manufacturing added 46,000, led by manufacturing&#8217;s 25,000, while construction grew by 16,000. (The totals are rounded.)<\/p>\n<p>The ADP report serves as a precursor to Friday&#8217;s more closely watched nonfarm payrolls count from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That reports is expected to show growth of 400,000 and a decline in the unemployment rate to 3.5%. If that forecast for the jobless rate is correct, it will match the pre-pandemic level, which was the lowest since December 1969.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>This is breaking news.
