Dataset Unit labour cost and unit wage cost time series

Notice

07 October 2021

As part of Blue Book 2021, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) faced some challenges in reconciling the industry-level gross value added (GVA) quarterly trends to the new annual data. This is particularly pronounced in the production industries. See information in the gross domestic product (GDP) low level aggregates dataset for more information. This has resulted in some volatility in the back series of our productivity estimates for some industries.
