UK – Employment rates much higher with at least one qualification compared with no qualifications

Fewer than half (48.5%) of those with no qualifications were in employment compared with around 8 in 10 (80.7%) of those with at least one qualification. Those with no qualifications were most likely to work in ‘elementary’ (28.0%) and ‘machine operatives’ (18.1%) occupations. In general, as the level of qualification increased, so did the employment rate.
