  1. 20 June 2025

     A revised version of the release and tables has been published. Any quarterly data that used Labour Force Survey (LFS) person level data has been revised to include reweighted data. This reweighting incorporates the latest estimates of the size and composition of the UK from January to March 2019 onwards. Data prior to and from January to March 2019 is not directly comparable. The LFS household dataset has not been reweighted with the most recent population estimates. Therefore, this data and the breaks in the series differ from that used in LFS person level data.
