				<p>In September, the trade, transportation and utilities sector experienced a dip in hiring in several regions, according to the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.adpemploymentreport.com/">ADP Regional Employment Report</a>. Additionally, hurricane&#8217;s Harvey and Irma interrupted the pattern of above-average economic growth we&#8217;ve seen recently in the South.</p>
<p>The ADP Regional Employment Report is produced by ADP®, a leading global provider of Human Capital Management (HCM) solutions, in collaboration with Moody&#8217;s Analytics, Inc.</p>
<p>Here is a closer look at the regional numbers:</p>
<ul>
<li>California added 25,500 jobs</li>
<li>Florida added 16,200 jobs</li>
<li>Illinois added 3,300 jobs</li>
<li>New Jersey lost 600 jobs</li>
<li>New York added 3,100 jobs</li>
<li>Texas added 23,600 jobs</li>
</ul>
<p>Broadly distributed to the public each month, free of charge, the ADP Regional Employment Report measures the change in regional and state nonfarm private employment each month on a seasonally adjusted basis.</p>
