Back to EpisodesUBS On-Air: Paul Donovan Daily Audio 'Orwellian employment'
Published 1 year, 5 months ago

The household and establishment surveys portray contrasting pictures of employment (and both have shocking response rates). Immigration, self-employment, automation, and switching to higher quality jobs all play a role in messing with the data.
