About this dataset

Use this data set to get information on the number of working-age people who are claiming one or more key DWP benefits and to learn about the combination of benefits they are claiming. If you want information about the number of people claiming a single benefit such as incapacity benefit, use the separate single benefit data set. This data set is based on all claims (i.e. 100% processing of records) so is not subject to sampling error.
