Revelio Public Labor Statistics Reports US Economy Added 258.8k jobs in June
NEW YORK, July 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Revelio Labs today released its June edition of Revelio Public Labor Statistics (RPLS), a monthly data release delivering transparent and reliable insights into the U.S. labor market. The latest data indicates a gain of 258,800 jobs in June, an increase in comparison to the previous month, and in line with expectations.
Hiring picked up modestly in June while attrition declined sharply, contributing to strong job growth across the US economy. Labor demand softened somewhat, with active job postings declining 2.1% from May. At the same time, salaries from new job postings rebounded, increasing 3.0% month over month, driven by gains in the Leisure and Hospitality and Professional and Business Services sectors.
Employment gains were driven by significant job gains in the Public Administration, Professional and Business Services, and Health Care and Social Assistance. Meanwhile, Transportation and Warehousing, and the Mining sectors were the only sectors that saw declines in employment. Within these sectors, the employers with the largest increases in employment were the US Government and the State of California in Public Administration; H&R Block and Ondira in Professional and Business Services; and Adventist Health System and HCA Healthcare in Health Care and Social Assistance. On the other hand, the largest employment losses happened in the Transportation and Warehousing sector, driven primarily by Delta Airlines and DHL Group.
"The labor market continued to strengthen in June, with both solid job growth and a modest pickup in hiring. But the broader picture remains one of a relatively static labor market: attrition continues to decline as workers remain reluctant to leave their jobs, suggesting confidence in outside opportunities has yet to fully recover," said Chief Economist Lisa Simon.
RPLS is a freely available macroeconomic labor market set of statistics built from 100+ million U.S. profiles to provide a clear view of workforce dynamics. It follows a format similar to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), tracking employment levels, wages, and job transitions at a scale that traditional surveys cannot, offering a continuous picture of the labor market. RPLS intends to close the growing information gap and deliver unbiased data on the U.S. workforce for policymakers, businesses, and the public.
