95% confidence interval of percent figure (+/-).

! Estimate and confidence interval not available since the group sample size is zero or disclosive (0-2).

Data shows the number of jobs and job density by borough.

The number of jobs in an area is composed of jobs done by residents (of any age) and jobs done by workers (of any age) who commute into the area.

Total jobs is a workplace based measure of jobs and comprises:

- employees (from the Annual Business Inquiry),

- self-employment jobs (from the Annual Population Survey), People who are self-employed in a second job are included in the self-employed totals.

- government-supported trainees (from DfES and DWP) and

- HM Forces (from MoD).

Job density is the number of jobs per resident of working age (male and female: 16-64). For example, a job density of 1.0 would mean that there is one job for every resident of working age in the population.

More information on jobs available in Workplace Employment by Sex and Status, Borough and modelled estimates and projections of jobs are available in the GLA Employment Projections. These are considered to be the most accurate jobs estimates at borough level.

This dataset is for testing only. It is a subset of employment rate data retrieved from Nomis, a service provided by ONS. https://www.nomisweb.co.uk

This dataset has now been discontinued following a user consultation. However figures for employment by occupation, sourced from our Annual Population Survey are available on our NOMIS website.

Workforce Jobs (WFJ) is a quarterly measure of the number of jobs in the UK and is the preferred measure of the change in jobs by industry. It is a compound source that draws on a range of employer surveys, household surveys and administrative sources. WFJ is the sum of employee jobs measured primarily by employer surveys, self-employment jobs from the Labour Force Survey, and government-supported trainees and Her Majesty's Forces from administrative sources. The spreadsheet shows change since last quarter and last year, with graphs displaying these trends. Data is available by industry from NOMIS WEB. Data back to Sep 1981 available for the UK, and back to March 1996 for UK regions (included in spreadsheet). Seasonally adjusted. The figures in this dataset are adjusted to compensate for seasonal variations in employment. UK totals include overseas based HM Forces personnel that cannot be assigned to a region. Supporting information is now available to identify a small number of estimates that are deemed unreliable from https://www.nomisweb.co.uk/articles/654.aspx. Data is rounded to the nearest 1000.

Note - previously published figures may differ slightly from those published in December 2024 due to revisions made by Nomis.

Previously named Claimant count. Information on the numbers and characteristics of people claiming benefit principally for the reason of being unemployed derived from Jobseeker's Allowance data. Available for various geographic levels down to local authority and parliamentary constituency.

The GLA is currently developing updated household projection models for use in its 2023-based projections. This page will initially contain raw input data to the projections, with processed data, calculated rates, draft outputs, and links to code being added as development progresses. Inputs: * Census estimates of population usually resident population by age, sex, local authority, and residence type. * Census estimates of household representative persons by age, sex, local authority, and household type Data from standard Census tables published by ONS have been downloaded from Nomis and republished here. Full metadata for these tables can be found on the relevant pages of the Nomis website. Additional Census tables were commissioned from ONS via the GLA's Census Information Scheme. For further information about the commissioned tables, please contact census.commissiontables@ons.gov.uk

Indicators included are economic activity and employment rates for those aged 50-64 years, by country, region and local authority. Both economic activity and employment rates are displayed as percentages. These have been calculated from the ONS Annual Population Survey and have been extracted from NOMIS.

This dataset has been produced by the Ageing Analysis Team for inclusion in a subnational ageing tool, which will be published in July 2020. The tool will be interactive, and users will be able to compare latest and projected measures of ageing for up to four different areas through selection on a map or from a drop-down menu.

Note on update frequency: NOMIS provide quarterly updates on both indicators. For consistency with other indicators presented in the subnational ageing tool, these will be updated on an annual basis.

Employment (workplace) by industry from the Business register and employment survey (BRES). This data excludes self-employed but includes proprietors
Employment = employees + working proprietors. Working Proprietors are sole traders, sole proprietors, partners and directors. This does not apply to registered charities.
Numbers have all been rounded to the nearest 100
Before the BRES first existed in 2009, the ABI collected employment data by industry. The two surveys are not directly comparable. The BRES is a business survey which collects both employment and financial information. Only employment information for the location of an employees workplace is available from Nomis
The BRES is based on a sample of approximately 80,000 businesses and is used to provide an estimate of the number of employees.
The difference between the estimate and its true value is known as the sampling error. The actual sampling error for any estimate is unknown but we can estimate, from the sample, a typical error, known as the standard error. This provides a means of assessing the precision of the estimate; the lower the standard error, the more confident we can be the estimate is close to the true value. NOMIS website article

This dataset excludes farm based agriculture data contained in SIC class 0100.

The ABI was replaced by the Business Register and Employment Survey (BRES) from 2009 onwards, therefore this dataset will no longer be updated.
