Annotation | This publication uses the Labour Force Survey (LFS) to summarise headline trends in employment, unemployment and inactivity, to give an overview of labour market outcomes during the preset recession. The data in this report considers the first quarter of 2009 compared to the position a year earlier when the recession started to have an impact on the labour market. The report notes that while older workers aged 50-68 have the lowest employment rate of all working age groups, redundancy rates are not as high as for other age groups. (RH). |
