Details
The government has a clear ambition to raise the employment rate to 80% but recognises that there are many components of a sustained improvement to the workforce.
The metrics in this document show some of the key indicators that the government will continue to monitor closely as we carry out our work.
These will build on aims set out in the Prime Minister’s Plan for Change speech and published in the Get Britain Working White Paper.
Future publications
DWP will provide an annual update outlining recent trends in these metrics. We anticipate the first of these will be published in October 2025.
