Local Economic Assessment

View Dorset Council’s local economic assessment page, designed to provide you with a series of bulletins to give you an overview of Dorset’s economy and labour market together with links to other key documents you may find useful.

The UK has a productivity gap with output per hour below the average for the rest of the G7 major industrialised countries. In Dorset, for every hour worked we produce almost 19% less than the UK average3.

Businesses

  • Although business survival is good, we have fewer than average business births: 71 to every 10,000 residents aged 16 to 64 compared with 91 in England1.
  • And we have smaller business units: just 7.0 employees per business unit compared with 9.3 in England2.
  • Whilst large firms represent less than one per cent of Dorset’s business stock, they employ about a fifth of the workforce. Ensuring the availability of suitable employment land like the Dorset Innovation Park to offer larger sites and units gives local firms the chance to expand and relocate here, rather than leave the area. It also offers choice to new businesses considering a move to Dorset, bringing new jobs with them.
  • Dorset is less competitive than the national average. In recent years competitiveness has worsened, with Dorset's ranking falling two places between 2018 and 2021. The further reduction in our ranking maybe due to the twin shocks of the Covid-19 Pandemic and Brexit which have had a greater impact on areas with significant tourism sectors, like Dorset.
  • Whilst we have above national average representation of advanced engineering and of manufacturing as a whole, we have low representation of businesses in high productivity sectors2 and half the average representation in high R&D spending sectors5.
  • Self-employment is 10% of economically active residents compared with 7% in England, however, this has fallen significantly which may be an impact of the pandemic creating economic instability6.

People

  • Employment is expected to grow by more than 11,000 in Dorset over 2019-297 - but most of this new employment will be part-time
  • Manufacturing, health, retail, education and hospitality are all big employers in Dorset.
  • 45% of skills required by employers over the next decade are for level 4 and above7.
  • 14 neighbourhoods in Dorset are in the most deprived 20% nationally for employment8 - 10 of these are in the former borough of Weymouth & Portland.
  • Earnings are below average. Median gross weekly pay for full time employees was £546 for Dorset workers compared with £613 in Great Britain9.
  • 36% of the Dorset workforce is aged over 50 compared with 28% in England10. Older workers have experience and skills and, as more people retire, other workers need training to fill the gaps.
  • Over the next decade, the population in Dorset aged 16 to 64 will shrink by 0.2% per annum. That’s a net loss of nearly 3,600 people in this age group. The old age dependency ratio, which is the number of people aged 65+ compared to the number of people of working age, is expected to increase from 537 per 1000 in 2020 to 655 per 1000 in 202911.
  • Around 3,100 apprenticeships were started in Dorset in 2020/2112. It is estimated that for every £1 of public monies spent on apprenticeships, an economic benefit of £21 is created13.

The impact of Covid-1914

  • The first COVID-19 lockdown in March 2020 transformed working patterns, with almost half of all people in employment in the UK doing some work from home in April 2020. The service sector, which accounts for approximately 80% of UK GDP saw nearly four out of five employees working from home.
  • Price, Waterhouse and Cooper have concluded that universal, mandatory working from home could lead to £15.3bn reduction in gross domestic product (GDP). In Dorset, 88% of businesses surveyed said that the outbreak caused significant disruption. 55% say they have furloughed staff, and 9% have laid off workers permanently15.
  • However, flexible working including the ability to work from home also has the potential to increase productivity, support the 'levelling up' of rural versus urban areas by bringing diverse economic activity to rural areas and improved work-life balance.
  • Employers with a flexible approach to home working will support those employees who favour working from home as well as those who have struggled with the increased isolation created by the pandemic. Lower operating costs, reduced commuting and digital inclusion are additional benefits.

The index is measured at a small area level (called Lower-layer Super Output Areas – LSOAs) in England with an average of 1,500 residents in each.

  • Our Communities Topic Report - Dorset's Coastal Communities

    06 October 2017

    According to a report written by the Social Market Foundation, on average, coastal communities are less productive economically than non-coastal communities. They often have lower levels of pay, higher rates of unemployment and have populations with lower skill levels and poorer health. Four of Dorset's district councils are coastal communities, along with Bournemouth and Poole. The socioeconomic picture across Dorset's coastal communities varies considerably. This bulletin looks at why this matters for Dorset.
