ADP's September National Employment Report showed private-sector employment increased by 90,000 jobs, a rebound in hiring after a three-month slowdown led by education and health services (up 55,000) and leisure and hospitality (up 22,000). Pay growth remained solid: base pay rose 3.2% year over year and gross pay climbed 4.7%, with job-changers outpacing job-stayers on both measures.
