Vereinigtes Königreich von Großbritannien und Nordirland Veränderung der Beschäftigung

The number of employed people in the United Kingdom fell by 16,000 to 34.23 million in the three months to October 2025, following a 22,000 decline in the previous period. This marks the second consecutive decrease in job creation since March last year, largely driven by a drop in full-time positions. Compared with a year earlier, employment rose 448,000, driven by an increase in both the number of employees and part-time self-employed workers, while full-time self-employed workers declined. Meanwhile, the employment rate for those aged 16 to 64 fell by 0.3 percentage points to 74.9%. The number of individuals holding second jobs rose slightly to 1.302 million, representing 3.8% of the employed population.
