5 RESEARCH PAPER 14/40 1 Employment and unemployment national Statistics on Jobseeker s Allowance (JSA) claimants are one part of a large selection of labour market data released on a monthly basis. 1 This section highlights some of the key national figures in the latest labour market release. Claimant Count and unemployment The number of people claiming JSA decreased by 36,300 between May 2014 and June 2014, to 1.04 million people aged 18 or over. 2 This is the lowest monthly claimant count since October There are 418,900 fewer people claiming JSA than in June 2013, the largest annual decrease since December The number of male claimants decreased by 22,300 between May 2014 and June 2014 to 668,100. The number of female claimants decreased by 14,000 to 376, Millions of people unemployed UK, seasonally adjusted People available for and looking for w ork (ILO definition) ILO unemployment was 2.12 million in March-May 2014, down 121,000 from the previous quarter and down 383,000 from the year before. 4 The unemployment rate was 6.5% (the percentage of the economically active population who are unemployed), down 0.4% points on the previous quarter and 1.3% points on the same period last year. This compares to a pre-recession low of 5.2% in March-May 2008 and a post-recession high of 8.4% in late People claiming Jobseeker's Allow ance Measuring unemployment: two sets of statistics are used to assess the health of the labour market: The claimant count: the number of people claiming Jobseeker s Allowance. This is the most up to date information and is available for local areas, but can be affected by changes to benefit rules. ILO unemployment: the standard international measure, which includes everyone looking for and available for work, whether or not they are claiming Jobseeker s Allowance. This is measured using surveys; data for constituencies and local authorities have a time lag and are subject to more sampling variation. There were 1.17 million men unemployed in March-May 2014, down 95,000 from the previous quarter. 956,000 women were unemployed, down 25,000 from the previous quarter. 817,000 young people aged were unemployed in March-May 2014, down 64,000 from the previous quarter and down 141,000 from the previous year. The unemployment rate for this age group is 17.8% down from 20.9% last year. 1 The latest labour market release is available from the ONS website. This section is based on data from this release and local labour market statistics from NOMIS. Data in this section are seasonally adjusted. 2 Figures for claimants aged 18+ are seasonally adjusted to remove the effects of changes to the claimant count that tend to happen every year. JSA data for constituencies later in this paper are not seasonally adjusted. Section 2 looks at patterns and trends in the non-seasonally adjusted constituency data. 3 The JSA claimant count excludes a small number of new jobseekers who are claiming Universal Credit rather than Jobseeker s Allowance. Further details are given in section 4. 4 Much of the data in this section, such as ILO unemployment and employment, are based on estimates from the Labour Force Survey (LFS). As these are liable to sampling variability, small changes in the figures should be interpreted with caution as they may be a result of sampling error. More information on sampling variability is available from table A11 of the labour market statistical section of the ONS website. 1

6 RESEARCH PAPER 14/40 749,000 people had been unemployed for longer than 12 months at March-May 2014, a fall of 57,000 from the previous quarter and 166,000 lower than a year earlier. 415,000 people had been unemployed for longer than two years, 15,000 fewer than the previous quarter and 59,000 lower than a year ago. On a country and regional basis the unemployment rate was highest in the North East (9.6%) and lowest in the South East (4.4%) in March-May The unemployment rate decreased over the year in all regions. The largest annual percentage falls in unemployment were in the West Midlands (down 2.4% points) and the East Midlands (down 2.0% points). However, note regional unemployment estimates are more volatile than for the UK. Employment million people were in employment in March-May Total unemployed Long term unemployment Millions, UK, seasonally adjusted ILO definition of unemployment Unemployed for at least 12 months Unemployment by country and region March-May 2014 ILO unemployment rates North East Yorkshire and The Humber West Midlands London North West Scotland Northern Ireland Wales United Kingdom East Midlands East of England South West South East 5.0% 4.4% 5.6% 5.4% 7.3% 7.3% 6.9% 6.7% 6.6% 6.5% 7.9% 7.4% 9.6% 0% 2% 4% 6% 8% 10% 12% Employment was up 254,000 from the previous quarter and 929,000 more people were in employment than a year ago. This is the largest annual increase since comparable records began in Employment, annual change to March-May 2014 Thousands +929 The employment rate (the proportion of the population aged in work) was 73.1% in +164 March-May 2014 and is now higher than its pre-recession peak of 73.0% in March-May It was All people Men Women up 0.5% points from the previous quarter and 1.7% points from the previous year Full time Part time The female employment rate was 68.1% in March-May The male employment rate was 78.1%. The number of men in employment increased by 121,000 over the past quarter and 527,000 over the past year, to million in March-May The number of women in employment was million, 133,000 more than in the previous quarter and 402,000 more than in the same period last year. 2

7 RESEARCH PAPER 14/ million people were working full-time in March-May 2014, up 231,000 on the previous quarter and 765,000 more than a year earlier. The number of people working part-time was 8.20 million, up 24,000 on the previous quarter and 164,000 more than a year ago million people were working in parttime jobs because they could not find a full-time job, down 61,000 on the previous quarter and 86,000 from the same period last year million people were self-employed in March-May 2014, an increase of 78,000 on the previous quarter and 404,000 on the same period last year. The number of people working as employees was up 190,000 on the previous quarter and up 552,000 on the previous year, at million. Inactivity The number of people aged who are economically inactive (not in work and not looking for work) was 8.78 million in March-May 2014, down 67,000 from the previous quarter and down 258,000 compared to the previous year. The proportion of the population aged who were inactive (the inactivity rate) was 21.7%. This equals the troughs of late 1989 and early 1990, when the inactivity rate was at its lowest point since comparable records began in The inactivity rate for men was 16.2%, unchanged compared to the previous quarter and 0.6% points lower than the previous year. The inactivity rate for women was 27.2% in March-May 2014, the lowest rate since comparable records began in million men aged were inactive, about the same as in the previous quarter. The number of women aged who were inactive was down 72,000 at 5.51 million. Vacancies There were 648,000 job vacancies in the three months to June 2014, 30,000 more than in the previous quarter and 117,000 higher than a year ago. This is the highest number of vacancies in the economy since the three months to June Earnings Average weekly total pay in Great Britain rose by 0.3% in March-May 2014 compared with the same period the year before. Real average weekly earnings Regular pay (excluding bonuses) was up May 2014 prices, adjusted for CPI inflation 0.7%. The Consumer Price Index increased by 1.5% between May 2013 and May Average weekly total pay in the private sector increased by 0.2% over this period. In the public sector total pay rose by 0.6%. Regular pay (excluding bonuses) rose by 0.9% in the private sector and by 0.6% in the public sector Including bonuses Excluding bonuses

8 RESEARCH PAPER 14/40 2 Analysis and maps of the JSA claimant count by constituency Statistics on Jobseeker s Allowance (JSA) claimants are released monthly for each constituency. Unlike the national figures shown earlier in the paper, these figures are not seasonally adjusted and so reflect changes to the claimant count that tend to happen every year. On a non-seasonally adjusted basis, the number of people in the UK claiming Jobseeker s Allowance in June 2014 was 1.02 million, down 69,700 from the previous month. National data taking seasonal factors into account show that the claimant count fell by 36,300 between May and June, to 1.04 million. 5 The table in Section 3 shows figures for each constituency on this non-seasonally adjusted basis, along with figures for countries and regions (at the end of the table). Rises and falls for constituencies Over the last year, between June 2013 and June 2014, the claimant count decreased in all constituencies. Over the month to June 2014, the claimant count decreased in 648 constituencies and increased in two constituencies Dundee West and Dundee East. Universal Credit The claimant count figures presented in this paper do not include people claiming Universal Credit. From April 2013, single unemployed people without children attending certain jobcentres are claiming Universal Credit rather than JSA. Section 4.3 lists the Jobcentres affected, along with the date Universal Credit was rolled out in each area. The table below shows Universal Credit claimants by constituency. In total, 5,880 people were claiming Universal Credit at 30 April This will include people who continue to receive Universal Credit having entered employment.
