Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corva Coleman.
A report from the Labor Department this morning shows a jump in hiring last month.
And PR Scott Horsley reports U.S.
employers added 228,000 jobs in March.
The pace of hiring last month was stronger than the month before and stronger than forecasters had expected.
Jobs were added in healthcare and hospitality.
Thousands of retail workers also returned to the job after a strike.
Meanwhile, the federal government cut about 4,000 jobs in March,
according to the official tally, in addition to 11,000 jobs eliminated the month before.
The numbers are based on a survey conducted in the middle of each month.
Overall, federal layoffs are significantly larger.
Average wages in March were up 3.8% from a year ago,
which is likely more than enough to outpace inflation.
The unemployment rate inched up to 4.2%, as 232,000 people joined or rejoined the workforce.
