(+11,000).

+54,000 Manufacturing

parts manufacturing were on strike in October 

 Nonfarm employment increased by 

266,000 in November. Employment continued

November strength.

revised up from +128,000 to +156,000, and 

the change for September revised up from 

+180,000 to +193,000. On net, employment 

over these months is 41,000 higher than 

previously reported.

0.2 percent in November. Over the year, 

hourly earnings have increased by 3.1 percent.

hours.

 Mining employment declined by 7,000 in 

November. Since reaching a peak in May, 

mining employment has declined by 19,000. 

These losses can be attributed to support 

activities for mining, which has lost 24,000 

jobs since May. 

In November, the contraction in mining 

employment reflected a decline in the 

number of active domestic rotary oil rigs.

CES Highlights Release Date: December 6, 2019
 Manufacturing employment increased by 54,000 in November, largely 

reflecting a return from a strike in transportation equipment. Over the

goods and nondurable goods. 

 Employment in motor vehicles and parts increased by 41,000 in 

November, as workers returned from a strike in October. Over the most

change (-13,000).

 In November, the 1-month diffusion index rose 18.4 points to 54.6, its 

highest reading since June 2019. A value above 50 indicates more 

manufacturing industries are adding jobs than are losing them.

 Average weekly hours of all employees in manufacturing rose 0.1 hour 

to 40.5 hours in November but have declined 0.5 hour since reaching a 

peak in August 2018. The average workweek of production employees 

was unchanged, at 41.4 hours, and has declined 1 hour since reaching a 

peak in April 2018.

 Employment in retail trade changed 

little in November (+2,000) and has 

shown little net change so far in 2019 

(-26,000).

 Over the month, employment gains 

occurred in general merchandise stores 

(+22,000) and motor vehicle and parts 

dealers (+8,000). These gains were 

partially offset by a decline in clothing 

and clothing accessories stores 

(-18,000).

 Recent retail-related economic 

indicators are mixed. In October, Real 

Personal Disposable Income decreased, 

and the Consumer Confidence Index

declined in November. Conversely, Retail
