Unemployment jumps as UK jobs market stalls
Quick Glance: Rising Real Earnings Growth Raises Concerns at Bank of England
  • An unexpectedly weaker decline in the pace of wage increases has led to real earnings growth reaching its highest level in nearly two and a half years when considering inflation, according to the latest official data.

  • Recent official figures indicate that average regular pay without bonuses was at 6% in the three months to February compared to the previous year.

  • The broader ONS statistics revealed an increase in the UK's unemployment rate from 3.9% to 4.2%, with caution due to ongoing efforts to enhance the reliability of employment data.

  • The forthcoming inflation data expected on Wednesday is likely to demonstrate further progress towards the Bank's objectives and the potential for a decrease from the current 5.25% interest rate.
