Summary
30,750 jobs were added on average each week in the four weeks ending June 6, marking the first uptick in U.S. private hiring since May 2, ADP's NER Pulse showed.
The gain followed a 26,500 reading for the four weeks ending May 30 and remained below the 40,750 pace recorded in the period ending May 2.
ADP said the figures are preliminary, seasonally adjusted estimates based on a four-week moving average of high-frequency payroll data and carry a two-week lag.
The weekly Pulse offers a near-term read on private-sector employment between ADP's monthly jobs reports, with the next update due July 7.
