RSN Economic Profiling Service - May 2022

The RSN Economic Profiling Service provides an analysis of Alternative Claimant Count with the May 2022 edition now being available. The analysis examines the ratio of claimant on flows to off flows as well as claimant counts as a percentage of working population. Claimant counts had been significantly affected by the Covid pandemic, so it is useful to understand how areas are moving forward and whether they are recovering quickly.

- Unemployment Claimant Flows as an Indicator of Economic Performance
- Alternative claimant count flows (February 2022)
- Alternative claimant count as percentage of working population December (2021)
