A report of research carried out by the Economy and Labour Market Division of the Department for Work and Pensions. The report presents analysis on the United Kingdom labour market and how it has grown in recent years. There are now 2.5 million more people in work than in 1997, and the UK has one of the highest employment rates on record, standing at 74.6%. This is above the EU average, and in fact all regions have an employment rate above the EU, and 388 or the 406 Local Authorities do too. All data is based on the latest available in August 2006. |
