UK unemployment in November 2011 - a video overview

The presentational style might leave a little to be desired, but this analytical ONS video might provide colleagues with a different teaching resource to help explain the rapid rise in UK unemployment.

t shows the latest estimates of people unemployed, employed, inactive and claiming Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA).

It then shows how youth unemployment has changed since the 1980s, showing the impact of the recessions.

Finally, it looks at changes in the number of non-UK born workers showing differences depending on country of birth.
