What this means for people More openings usually make it easier to find work or to move job. Fewer openings can mean a longer search.
Vacancies are counted from businesses, separately from the household survey that produces the unemployment rate. Reading the two together shows how many openings there are for the people looking for work.

How to read this A survey of businesses Employers are asked how many open posts they have. Like any survey, the figure has a margin of error.
Each figure covers three months Each figure is an average over three months, so it changes slowly. Compare it with the three months before or with a year earlier.
Open posts, not job adverts This counts jobs that employers are trying to fill from outside their business. It is not a count of online job adverts.
