The labour market is emerging from a period of unprecedented challenges brought about by Covid-19, and all signs point towards the candidate-led market lasting throughout 2022. The Adecco Labour Market Outlook aims to help you better understand the competitive landscape and identify the right salaries to pay so you can recruit and retain the best talent.

Labour market expertise

We look at the overall picture, at differences between sectors, and at the outlook for the 12 regions of the UK, with insight from Adecco’s regional experts.

Objective salary data

Our salaries are derived from Emsi Burning Glass data – which is harvested from tens of thousands of job boards and updated every month with between 800,000 and 1 million new unique postings.

Insight for the future

In partnership with Oxford Economics, we suggest what is likely to happen to the labour market in 2022 and 2023, and what the longer-term prospects might be.
