Labour Market Information
What is labour market information?
Labour Market Information (LMI) is the name for data, statistics and figures relating to jobs and sectors of employment. This is used to give an overall picture of past and present levels of supply and demand (this can include salaries, working hours, job specific skills, etc). The labour market is the term used to describe the amount of people working and looking for work, and the amount of jobs.
*Please note Labour market Intelligence is the term used when Labour market information is analysed and interpretations are made E.G. future trends and predictions.
If you would like to explore this in more detail, please contact our CEIAG OFFICER Mr Ramsay mramsay@honywoodschool.com
How can labour market information (LMI) help me with career decisions?
LMI can help you understand:
what a job involves on a day-to-day basis
which jobs are growing or declining – for example, it is predicted that the amount of nurses will rise, but the amount of screen printers will fall
what qualifications or skills you might need to do a job
how much you might earn
how your interests and skills are relevant to particular jobs
what jobs there are in your region
Not everyone knows what they want to do when they finish school and even if you do, do you know how to get started or what training you need to get the job you want?
This is your guide to everything you need to know about getting ready for a job or training you would like to do.
We have highlighted eight different industries that you could think about for your future jobs. These are all popular and growing in Essex and are important for bringing money and new skills to the area. Each of these industries have different starting points no matter what your qualifications, skills or experience. There is something for everyone!
There is also information about the different types of learning and training courses available to you after finishing school or college. These are things like on-the-job training for beginners, how to combine work and study, and options to continue your education at a university or elsewhere.
