Timetric: Total Employment in the UK Economy

Geoff Riley

10th March 2011

Share this content:

The level of employment fluctuates over time as an economy progresses through the business cycle and because of structural changes in economic performance, labour market activity and the total population. Our Timetric chart tracks total employment and shows the extent to which jobs were lost during the recession and whether they are recovering sufficiently well as we head into the upturn.
