This page presents analysis and data related to skills and employment in London Note on data sources and interpretation: The analysis is not intended to be comprehensive or exhaustive. It is a snapshot analysis of key data as it pertains to London. The analysis does not represent the full body of evidence on which Mayoral Policies are, or will be, based. Outputs should be triangulated with other sources of information and analysis to develop a rounded statistical picture of specific policy issues.

A London series by industry and a borough series (no industry) 1984 to 2011. These data have been used by GLA Economics to forecast long-term employment projections and within GLA Economics' models for exports, tourism and life sciences. The two series are: 1. London Employment Jobs: a London level series which includes Employee Jobs and Self-Employment Jobs from 1984 to 2010 with industries by GLA Economics sectors on a SIC 2007 basis 2. A borough level Employee Jobs series 1984 to 2010 (no industry breakdown) Methods and assumptions behind the data are explained in the GLA Economics Working Paper 52 _Data Download_ Sector data Borough data _Notes_ Borough Data Source: ONS Employee Jobs, ONS Business Surveys, GLA Economics assuptions Data are for employees and do not include self-employment jobs Data are adjusted for series discontinuities only - no additional corrections have been made 1998 data for Richmond and 2000 data for Greenwhich where employee increases are high have not been adjusted Sector Data Source: ONS Employee Jobs, LFS, GLA Economics assuptions 2010 data are provisional Data include employees and self-employment jobs Edit Workforce Sector Data from nomis - updated to Dec-2011 _ _

The report uses Annual Population Survey Data to examine mini-jobs in London and profile the key characteristics of those who work in such jobs. The report is available to download by clicking on the thumbnail below. The data contained within the report is available to download here

The percentage of the economically active population who are claiming Job Seekers Allowance (JSA). Output from the GLA claimant count model which uses administrative counts of Job Seekers and expresses them as a percentage of the labour force using GLA projections of the economically active population. Designed to complement ONS claimant count rates which use the whole population as the denominator. From October 2015, the series included here is JSA CLAIMANTS ONLY. Output from the GLA ward level Claimant Count Model for 2015. There have been changes to the data published to create these rates. From May 2015, the official claimant count data changed at national and regional levels to include all claimants of Universal Credit not in employment (including those not subject to work related criteria).However, comparable data were not available by age and duration and the small area data did not include these claimants. From October 2015, this group of Universal Credit claimants were included in the small area data, but no duration data is available. However, the data in the files posted here (as released by ONS) were for the published claimant count up to September 2015 and from October 2015 continue to include JSA only. At December 2015 there were more than 10,000 Universal Credit claimants in London, of whom 3,400 (34 per cent) were in employment. The borough with the largest number of these is Tower Hamlets with over 900 UC claimants not in employment, Some other boroughs had quite large numbers, but in 13 boroughs there were 10 or fewer recorded UC claimants not in employment. From January 2016 data this series will be replaced with a new series that uses the claimant count data that are available. Other breaks in the series are expected over 2016-17.
