How ONS is improving the Labour Force Survey
Today we are reintroducing Labour Force Survey data and providing information to users ahead of its inclusion in next week’s monthly Labour Market Statistics publication. In line with other countries, the ONS has been facing the challenge of falling response rates for many of our household surveys in recent years. Here Liz McKeown explains how since suspending our Labour Force Survey estimates, in line with our improvement plan, we’ve improved these data by using more up to date information about the UK population and summarises the picture that they now paint when viewed alongside our other measures of the UK’s jobs market.
