Manufacturing Payrolls reflect an absolute difference in the number of employees of manufacturing companies in the given month compared to the previous one. The indicator enables the evaluation of the labor market state, therefore a higher than expected reading is seen as favorable for the US dollar, while lower readings are seen as negative.
