Labour market report June 2012: growth in “private sector industries” On 3 October 2012, the States Statistics Unit published its six monthly review of Jersey’s labour market for the period to June 2012. Total employment in Jersey in June 2012 was 56,380, down by 530 as compared with June 2011. In relation to levels of unemployment, as at 30 June 2012 the total number of people registered as actively seeking work (“ASW”) was 1,720 – down from February 2012 when ASW numbers peaked at 1,820. While the reduction in employment showed that economic conditions remained difficult, the reduction in those registered as ASW indicated that action being taken by the States to tackle unemployment was working. Although employment in sales, construction and finance was significantly down, it was positive to note that employment in the “private sector service industries” was up by 470 compared with the previous year. These industries are described in the report as being “predominantly businesses servicing other business and businesses servicing private households”.
