A cautionary look at what the new earnings data can tell us about the impact of the pandemic

Research output: Digital or non-textual outputs › Blog Post

Abstract

The Covid pandemic has had a huge impact on our working lives. It has seen many of us work from home, and a number of people placed on furlough from their employer as well as job losses. Tracking this in the available economic survey data has proven challenging, with little change in headline indicators like the unemployment rate. We’ve also lacked data at a regional level on key metrics like redundancies, and data on hours worked at a regional level is only beginning to emerge.
