Details

The latest release of these statistics can be found in the collection of Work Choice statistics.

This publication contains Work Choice statistics for the period October 2010 to 24 June 2018.

The tables were replaced with a revised version on 5 December 2018.

Revisions have been made to the regional breakdown in the Work Choice statistics – ‘table 7: Number of Work Choice starts by region’. This is due to an improvement in methodology which incorporates geographic data for Universal Credit live service claimants.

As a result, regional data has been added to the majority of records where this was previously missing. This means the proportion of participants with a ‘missing’ region has decreased from 8% to 1%.

Records which already had a non-missing region have not changed.

All regional totals have therefore increased but by varying amounts, with the percentage increase varying from 1% (Yorkshire and the Humber) to 15% (North West).

This change has mostly affected records of participants that started Work Choice from 2015 onwards (in line with the rollout of the Universal Credit live service) so mostly affects totals for financial years 2015 to 2016 onwards.
