UK Labor Market Analysis
The unemployment rate from August to October 2022 continued to increase by 0.1% to 3.7%. Over the past three-month period, the number of people unemployed for up to six months has increased, and this increase in unemployment is seen across all age groups.
The UK economy slowed down by 0.2% in the quarter from 21.5% in August to October 2022. The decline in the economy slowed down over the last three months, driven by those aged 50 to 64. The reason for the economic downturn can be seen in economic inactivity, a quarterly decline driven by those who have become inactive due to retirement. In September to November 2022, the number of jobs fell by 65,000 on the quarter to 1,187,000. Despite five consecutive quarters of declines, the number of jobs is at its highest level. The decline in job vacancies reflects uncertainty across industries in the UK, as respondents cited economic pressures as a factor holding back recruiters in the labour market.
Average growth in salaries (including bonuses) and regular salaries among employees was the same at 6.1% per month from August to October 2022. Average regular salary growth for the private sector was 6.9% in August to October 2022, and 2.7% for the public sector. Outside of peak pandemic data, this is the largest growth rate seen for the private sector and one of the largest differences between private and public sector growth rates.
