Women have accounted for nearly all of the net increase in U.S. payroll employment since President Donald Trump returned to office for his second term, according to an analysis of federal employment data.

An analysis of Bureau of Labor Statistics data found that payroll employment among women has increased by roughly 765,000 jobs since December 2024, while employment among men has declined by about 6,000 over the same period, according to a report from The Daily Wire.

The trend continued in August, when the economy added 162,000 nonfarm jobs, according to the Labor Department. The unemployment rate held at 4.1%.

Much of August's hiring came from industries with large numbers of female workers. Restaurants and bars added about 59,000 jobs, while local government education employment rose by 42,000. Manufacturing also added 16,000 positions.
