Labour Market and Welfare
The Labour Market and Welfare theme includes statistics measuring different aspects of work and jobs and covers people’s employment, working patterns and the types of work they do. The theme also covers any earnings and benefits they receive.
We recently commented on a range of labour market and welfare statistics. We:
- Our findings on the compliance check of the Indices of Deprivation statistics in England, Scotland and Wales (July 2020)
- A package of outputs on labour market statistics including our assessment report of the Office for National Statistics’ UK employment and jobs statistics and our findings from our compliance check of key labour market statistical reports for the devolved administrations (March 2020)
- An update on progress by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), DWP and HMRC against recommendations of the 2015 Coherence and Accessibility of Official Statistics on Income and Earnings Review (February 2019)
Our future plans for 2020/21 include an assessment of the Department for Work and Pensions’ Benefits Statistical Summary and an assessment of the Department for Communities’ Personal Independence Payment statistics for Northern Ireland.
