Footnotes
- The annual change in hourly wage, wage premium and annual change in hours worked indicators do not include Northern Ireland data, whereas the visa density and online job advert density indicators include data for the whole of the UK. This could disproportionately impact occupations which have a large proportion of workers in Northern Ireland.
- Proportions may not sum to 100% due to rounding.
- Worker volumes sourced from: Annual population survey Apr 2023 - Mar 2024 (opens in new tab)
- Industry worker volumes proportionately distribute occupation workers using the distributions shown in the mapping of occupations to industries 2024 supporting file.
- Proportion uses the total number of workers in the respective industry as the denominator
- Proportion uses the total number of workers in the respective demand level and industry as the denominators.
- Rounded to the nearest 100.
