Statistics from the Office for National Statistics show that the UK’s employment rate has risen to a new high of 76.3 per cent, largely due to a record number of women in full time work.
Late last year, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) published its national population projections. The findings showed that the number of over 85s in the UK is set to double within the next 25 years, adding fuel to industry fears of a looming social care crisis.
In the three months to October 2019, the unemployment rate in the UK fell to its lowest recorded level since January 1975 according to figures from the Office for National Statistics.
Official figures published by the Office for National Statistics show that the UK economy grew at its slowest annual rate for almost seven years during October.
According to a study from the Office for National Statistics, total household financial debt rose by 11 per cent between April 2016 and March 2018 compared to the previous two years.
According to figures published by the Office for National Statistics, disabled workers are paid 12.2 per cent less than their non-disabled colleagues on average.
Productivity can be famously hard to measure, but the ONS recorded the April to June quarter as producing the fastest falling figures for five years. Measured by output per hour these numbers are always relatively crude, but the two quarters prior to this one had also seen zero growth.
