Across regions, Westminster saw the largest decrease in payrolled employees (-4.1%), while Causeway Coast and Glens recorded the highest growth (2.0%). Meanwhile, the median monthly pay increased by 5.8% year-on-year to £2,521. Annual growth in median pay was the highest in accommodation and food service activities sector (7.5%), while the lowest was in the finance and insurance sector (3.5%).
