20.10.202606:00:00UTC+00UK Employment Growth Accelerates in August as 3-Month Gains Hit 102K

United Kingdom employment growth strengthened over the summer, with the three-month-on-three-month Employment Change indicator rising to 102,000 in August 2026, up from 67,000 in July 2026.

According to data updated on 20 October 2026, the “Actual” figure for August reflects the change in employment over the latest three-month period compared with the previous three-month period, while the “Previous” figure for July shows how employment changed in the prior three-month window. On a month-over-month comparison basis, the August reading therefore points to a faster pace of job creation than in the preceding month.

The acceleration from 67K to 102K suggests a firmer labour market backdrop heading into late 2026, with employers adding more positions over the summer than earlier in the year, based solely on the reported three‑month changes.
