In 2022, ADP Research and the Stanford Digital Economy Lab developed a new methodology for the ADP National Employment, an independent measure of private-sector employment that delivers a high-frequency measure of the U.S. labor market and broader economy. This partnership continues to break new ground on research into hiring and pay.
ADP Research collaborates with the World Economic Forum on research projects and events throughout the year, including the group’s annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland.
Since 2025, ADP Research has been collaborating with American Public Media's Marketplace on a continuing series exploring how the world's shifting demographics are changing labor markets, both in the United States and abroad.
This research collaboration brings forward cutting-edge insights on pay dynamics and the evolving workforce. Its annual conference, the U.S. Monetary Policy Forum sponsored by the university's Kent A. Clark Center for Global Markets, brings together policymakers, leading scholars, and market economists. ADP chief economist Nela Richardson is a U.S. Monetary Policy Forum contributor.
