Private sector adds 215,000 jobs in December: ADP



    NEW YORK (Reuters) - Private-sector employers added 215,000 jobs in December, well above economists' expectations, a report by a payrolls processor showed on Thursday.

    Economists surveyed by Reuters had forecast the ADP National Employment Report would show a gain of 133,000 jobs.

    November's private payrolls were revised upward to show a gain of 148,000 from the previously reported 118,000.

    The report is jointly developed with Moody's Analytics.
