Quarterly ADP(R) Workforce Vitality Report Shows Faster Growth for Both the Youngest and Oldest Workers in Q2 2015
(firmenpresse) - ROSELAND, NJ -- (Marketwired) -- 07/15/15 -- The ADP® Workforce Vitality Index (WVI), which measures the total wages paid to the U.S. private sector workforce, is 108 in the second quarter of 2015 (3Q2013=100, Not Seasonally Adjusted). The index grew by 4.1% from a year ago. The movement in the index depends on the contributions of wages and hours of workers who have remained in the same jobs from the previous quarter, the wages and hours of workers who switched jobs during the quarter, and employment changes. See Table1 below.
As illustrated in Chart 1 below, ADP WVI growth across age groups varies quite a bit, but is similar at the two ends of the age range. The reasons for these increases differ between the groups. For younger workers, the growth in WVI can be attributed mostly to strong growth in wages. For older workers, it is due to increased employment. The increase in employment in the older age group may be a result of more and more workers staying in the job beyond the conventional retirement age while others are crossing the 55 age threshold. Younger workers are also working longer hours whereas older workers are working less.
"This quarter's Workforce Vitality Index gives us an interesting look at how labor market forces are affecting workers at the extreme ends of the age spectrum," said Ahu Yildirmaz, VP and head of the ADP Research Institute®. "Both the youngest and oldest workers are experiencing solid growth as measured by the Index, but for very different reasons. For one it's better wages. For the other it's delaying their exit from the workforce."
Smaller firms experienced the strongest growth in workforce vitality primarily because of employment growth. As illustrated by the monthly ADP National Employment Report®, small businesses, firms with fewer than 50 employees, have been leading employment growth for some time. Wage growth has been fairly consistent across firm sizes, ranging generally between 2 and 3 percent.
The 3rd Quarter 2015 ADP Workforce Vitality Report will be released on October 21, 2015.
