HC Deb 23 January 1990 vol 165 cc624-7W
Ms. Short

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment if he will give the latest details from the YTS leavers survey showing(a) the range and average wages earned, (b) the hours worked and (c) the types of jobs done by those leavers for those (i) in full-time work with the same employer, (ii) in full-time work with a different employer and (iii) in part-time work, giving the information separately for male and female and Great Britain totals.

Mr. Nicholls

The 100 per cent. follow-up survey of YTS leavers does not gather information about wages earned or specific number of hours worked.

The tables show the numbers and proportion of leavers who found full-time and part-time work in each occupational group. The information is given separately for all leavers, male and female.

Type of work found for leavers in a job during the period August 1987 to July 1989
Full-time job with same employer Full-time job with different employer Part-time job
