Local labour market statistics

Labour Market Trends, Oct 2005

A new web-based local area labour market statistics publication was published on 28 September 2005 on the National Statistics website. The publication, Local area labour markets: statistical indicators, is based on the labour market statistics framework of labour supply and labour demand.

The publication presents employment, unemployment and inactivity data from the first Annual Population Survey (APS), claimant count data, jobs densities, and earnings data from the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings. It will be produced every three months when new APS data become available.
