Corrections to periods from Jun 2023 to July 202417 Jul 2025. The APS and model-based unemployment data for the periods from June 2023 to July 2024 until January to December 2024 have been corrected as the result of an adjustment to the APS weights. The issue was identified during a recent review of the weighting method in preparation for the forthcoming reweighting of the survey and is related to the application of the non-response adjustment for boost cases, which was previously restricted up to March 2024 data. This has led to corrections to the weights for the three affected periods. Applying the corrections at this point, rather than at the point of reweighting, ensures the impact on estimates remains small. This issue does not impact any LFS estimates.
