The percentage of the economically active population who are claiming Job Seekers Allowance (JSA).
Output from the GLA claimant count model which uses administrative counts of Job Seekers and expresses them as a percentage of the labour force using GLA projections of the economically active population. Designed to complement ONS claimant count rates which use the whole population as the denominator – see the technical note for more information.
Data on this page were estimated using a methodology which has now been superceded. For the latest GLA Claimant Count data please click here
