February 2023 - DCMS Sectors Economic Estimates: Total Employment, January to December, 2011 - 2021.

This is an ad-hoc release that provides an estimate of total employment (number of filled jobs) in the DCMS Sectors for each calendar year from 2011 to 2021. The estimates provide the overall level of employment, and breakdowns by the following characteristics:

• Employment type (employed or self-employed)
• Nationality
• Region
• Sex
• Ethnicity
• Age group
• Highest level of education
• Work pattern (full time or part time)
• Socio economic group (Current Occupation)
• Disability status

These employment statistics were produced to meet user demand for total DCMS Sector estimates without the Digital Sector and Telecoms included, as responsibility for these policy areas now sit with the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT).

The DCMS Sector total reported here includes Civil Society, Creative industries, Cultural sector, Sport and - where applicable - Tourism. Due to this specification, users should not attempt to make comparisons to previously published DCMS totals.
