Use the visualisation to see annual workforce estimates, shown in blue, and monthly changes, shown in purple. As workforce estimates, the annual figures represent the whole adult social care sector, while monthly changes use unweighted data from the ASC-WDS. As such, monthly information should not be compared to our regular annual reports as they will only reflect the characteristics of those ASC-WDS locations that have recently updated their information.
The information (i) button provides useful notes about the data, while the Download PowerPoint button lets you save a screenshot of the visualisation for use in your own presentations. Each tab also includes a glossary for reference.
Beneath the visualisation, you’ll find links to download the full dataset and learn more about our methodology.
