People walk past a branch of Jobcentre Plus, a government run employment support and benefits agency, as the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) continues, in Hackney, London, Britain, August 6, 2020.
The number of people in employment in Britain fell by 220,000 in the three months to June, the most since 2009, as the coronavirus crisis hit the labour market, Office for National Statistics said.
The unemployment rate held at 3.9% but that reflected an increase in people who had given up looking for work and who were therefore not consider to be unemployed.
