At a time when Wisconsin's jobs statistics are under scrutiny as never before, preliminary data released Thursday showed that Wisconsin lost an estimated 6,200 private-sector jobs in April.

This is the second consecutive month of private-sector job losses in the state, according to the report from the state Department of Workforce Development.

Meanwhile, again according to the preliminary data, Wisconsin's state government added 500 jobs while the state's cities and counties shed jobs. Adding the net job gains in the government sector to the net losses in the private sector, the state lost an estimated total of 5,900 non-farm jobs in April from March.
