Total France Nonfarm Private Employment: 3,000

  • Industry Snapshot
    • Manufacturing -2,800
    • Trade +200
    • Financial Services +900
    • Business Services +2,900
    • Transportation -400
    • Real Estate +100

"Losses in the heavy industry and energy sectors contributed to the loss of 2,800 more jobs in manufacturing in December," said Ahu Yildirmaz, head of the ADP Research Institute. "Business services rebounded into positive territory after showing declines in four of the past five months."

Trade hiring slowed to only 200 jobs added after a very strong November gain of 5,300.

The 900 jobs added in Financial Services were slightly under the November gain of 1,000, but marked the 14th consecutive month of gains in this sector.

Transportation moved into negative territory losing 400 jobs after two consecutive positive months. This was likely due to reduced railway, airport and bus traffic due to the November terrorist attacks.

Real Estate added only 100 jobs as the property market remained sluggish.
