Trucking employment dips in May
The for-hire trucking industry took a bit of a breather in hiring in May, shedding 700 payroll jobs on a seasonally adjusted from revised April figures, according to preliminary estimates released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

So the 1.3858 million payroll jobs added in May is actually 200 higher than initially reported in April. Net new payroll jobs throughout the U.S. economy, meanwhile, totaled 175,000 — just slightly ahead of the monthly average over the past 12 months. The national unemployment rate ticked up a tenth of a point to 7.6%.
