Ethnic minority employment data portal
Welcome to the ethnic minority employment data portal, a hub where local government, partnerships and employers can find the best available sources of data on ethnic minority people in the UK.
The portal has been developed to help Local Authorities throughout the UK set targets for themselves relating to raising the employment of ethnic minority people in local areas.
Useful data sets
There is an abundance of data available in the public domain but not all of it will be suitable for your needs. In this portal we have identified data sets that include information on ethnic minority issues, predominately employment. We have also identified datasets that contain information at local authority level so you can compare what is going on in your area.
In the list of useful data sets you will find information on data for ethnic minority employment (and other relevant topics) including:
- Unemployment
- Economic inactivity
- Claimants of jobseekers allowance
- Those experiencing poverty
- Adult skils including literacy, numeracy, technology and ESOL
- Pupil attainment by ethnic group: GCSE
