Unemployment The government’s preferred measure of unemployment is the ILO Rate. This is an internationally comparable measure based on information gathered from the UK wide Labour Force Survey. At sub-region level however, the survey based ILO Rate lacks statistical robustness and therefore unemployment is measured via the claimant count (those claiming Job Seekers Allowance). Benefit rules means that this measure does not capture the totality of joblessness nevertheless it provides a useful gauge of trends in the local labour market. All Claimants of Job Seekers Allowance (JSA) Feb13 – Feb 14
The City’s claimant unemployment rate stood at 4.7% in February 2014, this compares to 5.8% in February 2013.
Dundee’s claimant rate remains above the Scottish average of 3.3% in February 2014.
