Private sector employment increased in all four major regions and all nine U.S. Census Bureau Divisions during the month of August 2015, according to the monthly ADP Regional Employment Report, which is produced in collaboration with Moody’s Analytics, Inc. 

“The West continues to enjoy the strongest growth rate among the four major regions since the collapse of energy prices knocked the South from the top spot,” said Ahu Yildirmaz, VP and head of the ADP Research Institute.  “The Midwest’s export-oriented manufacturers have been hurt by the high value of the dollar.  The Northeast labor market is underperforming in part due to sluggish financial services employment gains.”
