1 Workforce jobs are calculated by summing employee jobs, self-employment jobs from the Labour Force Survey, HM Forces and government-supported trainees.
2 Estimates for the United Kingdom include extra-regio GVA data which are excluded from other areas shown in the table. All GVA data presented here exceed published GVA estimates because the FISIM adjustment has not been made (see section 1 of Definitions for details).
