Unemployment ticks up as pay growth slows again

Published

The UK’s unemployment rate has risen, official figures suggest, while pay growth continues to slow.

The rate of unemployment stood at 4.3% in the three months to September, up from 4% the previous quarter.

While wage growth has eased, pay is still rising faster than inflation, which measures the rate of price increases.
