Information for toolmakers and press toolmakers separately is available only up to September 1972. For December 1972 and later dates, information is available only for the whole of the group "toolmakers, toolfitters and markers out". The following table shows the numbers of unemployed people registered at employment offices in Great Britain for employment in these occupations. It also shows corresponding unfilled vacancies; these are notified vacancies only and are not a measure of total vacancies.
