2011 Census
With an increasingly mobile society there is a need for population statistics to not only look at where people usually live, but to also look at a range of other alternatives.

The 2011 Census provides information on the population in England and Wales based on different population bases, including resident population, workplace population and workday population. This report presents the characteristics of the workplace population in the local authorities of England and Wales. The workplace population in a local authority is defined as the population whose usual place of work is in that local authority, including both individuals who live and work in the local authority and individuals who work in the local authority but commute from a home elsewhere within England or Wales.

A comparison of the 2011 Census and the Labour Force Survey (LFS) labour market indicators
We look at the differences in labour market statistics between the 2011 Census and the Labour Force Survey (LFS). Reasons for these differences include; coverage and data issues, coding and classification differences and the self-completion nature of the Census. The Census was found to estimate a higher number of people who were either in employment or actively seeking work, than the LFS, with most of the differences relating to the number of women in the labour market.
