LONDON, March 2 (Reuters) - Online job adverts in
Britain fell by 2% in the week to Feb. 24 compared with the
previous week, adding to a series of falls, the Office for
National Statistics said on Thursday.
The total number of online job adverts was 23% lower than
the level seen in the equivalent period of 2022, the ONS said,
citing data from online job search engine Adzuna.
The Bank of England is watching the labour market closely
for signs of further inflationary pressure. Official data has
suggested a slight weakening of that pressure recently.
