Employment indicators: June 2024 – information release – 29 July 2024 – Employment indicators provide an early indication of changes in the labour market.
Timing of redundancy payments in MEI data: Any reduction in filled jobs from a redundancy payment will be represented in the data over the following month. For example, an employee’s job would be counted in May but not in June if their final pay, which includes a redundancy payment, is in May. The MEI measures filled jobs, which means vacancies are not captured.
