Data as of: APS Jul 2025–Jun 2026; ASHE 2025; UK Business Counts 2024. Checked 28 Oct 2026.
The latest Nomis labour-market figures for the Hammersmith & Fulham local authority area show an employment rate of 72.0% for residents aged 16–64 in the year to June 2026, with economic activity at 76.9%.
The modelled unemployment rate for the same period is 6.4%. Survey estimates at local authority level come with wide confidence intervals (about ±3.5 percentage points for unemployment here), so treat small moves with caution.
On pay, the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (residence-based) puts median weekly gross pay at £834 in 2025. UK Business Counts recorded 12,095 VAT/PAYE enterprises in 2024.
