The latest Labour Market update shows a labour market that continues to tighten, with employment figures largely unchanged, unemployment decreasing, and vacancies at a new record high. Real time Pay-As- You-Earn data for April 2022 showed that the number of payrolled employees increased, up by 121,000 to a record 29.5 million.
