It was no surprise when the latest release of unemployment and employment data for the UK labour market up to the end of 2013 made headline news across the media.

Many teachers will be covering unemployment as part of their AS macro course - I have put together six updated charts into a PowerPoint file for those who want to integrate the data charts into their teaching.
