Reasons for workers leaving previous jobs

You asked

I would like the latest available data that examines the reason for workers leaving their last job.

I would ideally like an updated version of the following table;

We said

Thank you for your Freedom of Information Request asking for up-to-date information on reasons for employees leaving their last job. Unfortunately we do not hold an updated version of this table.

An updated version of this table can be obtained from the Labour Market Division. Special extracts and tabulations of labour market statistics are available to order (subject to legal frameworks, disclosure control, resources and agreement of costs, where appropriate). Such enquiries should be made to: labour.market@ons.gov.uk. We recommend that you contact the Labour Market Division directly via this email address in order to discuss your data requirements in more detail.

As this information is already available to you via this route, we consider that s.21(1) applies to this request and the information does not have to be supplied under the terms of the Freedom of Information Act. S.21(1) is an absolute exemption and no consideration of the public interest test needs to be applied.
