Percentage Universal Credit claimants in employment - Birmingham Constituency

Proportion of people claiming Universal Credit who are in employment. This is based on the count of the number of people on Universal Credit on the second Thursday of each month (completed the Universal Credit claim process and accepted their Claimant Commitment) and have not had a closure of their claim recorded for this spell. A closure of their claim would be recorded either at the request of the individual or if their entitlement to Universal Credit ends, for example, if they no longer satisfy the financial conditions to receive Universal Credit as they have capital over the threshold. To allow sufficient time for earnings information to be gathered on all claimants, figures for the latest month in the series will not be available until the next release. Figures provided for starts show the Jobcentre Plus office recorded at the start of the claim, whereas the figures for the number of people on Universal Credit are representative of the current Jobcentre Plus office that the claimant is attending. It is possible for people to have started on Universal Credit in one office and have moved to another office during their claim, and for this reason, the number of people on Universal Credit can be higher than the starts figure for any particular office, however it is more noticeable when numbers are low. You may be eligible to get Universal Credit if you’re on a low income or out of work, 18 or over (there are some exceptions if you’re 16 to 17), you’re under State Pension age (or your partner is), you and your partner have £16,000 or less in savings between you, and you live in the UK. Universal Credit has replaced Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA) for most people. It is still possible to claim JSA if you are 18 or over and under State Pension age. As long as you are actively looking for a full-time job and are out of work, or are working less than 16 hours a week. These standalone JSA claims are separately reported. Statistical disclosure control has been applied with Stat-Xplore, which guards against the identification of an individual claimant.Data is Powered by LG Inform Plus and automatically checked for new data on the 3rd of each month.

本数据集揭示了主张通用信用的人群中就业者的比例。该比例基于每月第二个星期四在通用信用体系中的人数统计（已完成通用信用申请流程并接受申请承诺），且在此期间未记录任何申请关闭的情况。申请关闭可能由个人申请或因资格终止而触发，例如，当个人资产超过阈值，不再满足接收通用信用所需的财务条件时。为充分收集所有申请人的收入信息，最新月份的数据将不会在下一发布周期之前可用。提供的开始数据展示了在申请开始时记录的就业中心办公室，而通用信用体系中的申请人数量则代表了申请人正在参加的当前就业中心办公室。个人可能在一家办公室开始通用信用，并在申请过程中转移到另一家办公室，因此，通用信用体系中的申请人数量可能高于特定办公室的开始数据，尤其是在数量较少的情况下更为明显。若个人收入较低或失业，年满18岁或以上（16至17岁之间存在一些例外），且个人及其伴侣的储蓄总额不超过16000英镑，并且居住在英国，则可能有资格申请通用信用。对于大多数人而言，通用信用已取代了求职者津贴（JSA）。如果个人年满18岁或以上且未达到国家养老金年龄，只要积极寻找全职工作且失业或每周工作时间少于16小时，仍然可以申请求职者津贴。这些独立的JSA申请将单独报告。通过对Stat-Xplore的应用实施了统计披露控制，以防止识别单个申请人。数据由LG Inform Plus提供支持，并在每月第三天自动检查新数据。
