Data about the share of early career employees in England in different SOC2010 occupations (or groups of occupations), using pooled employment data from 2016-17, 2017-18, and 2018-19 tax years; where an employee appears more than once, we take the information from the latest tax year observed. Further details are available in the publication methodology.
The 'employee_share' measure shows the share of employees for a group defined by selecting filters from:
- group: to select a specific STEM sub-group
- qualification_type: A Level or GCSE
