What is data analytics and why do we use it?
Keeping people in work by better understanding the:
Demand side
Supply side
Operational Conclusions

Where does sustainability come from?
Whilst we have measures in place to ensure that in work support for clients is bespoke:
1-2-1 Advisor support
Multi channel access to advice and guidance
Out of hours call centre support
In order for a new job to be sustainable, it has to be the right fit for both the client and the employer.
Keeping people in work from the Work Programme is as much about getting it right first time, as it is about appropriate follow up support.

....what are we learning?
•1 in 5 JSA clients declare a health concern as a barrier to finding employment.
•However our ESA clients are still presenting with more significant levels of anxiety, depression and somatic symptoms compared to JSA clients declaring a health concern.
• Employee attitude matters more to our employers than qualifications gained by clients
• The Work Programme’s largest age profile is the over 40’s – it is also statistically harder to achieve Job Outcomes for older clients.
• It is harder to achieve Job Outcomes for those who state their ethnicity is ‘White’ compared with those who state it being ‘Black’; Asian; or ‘Mixed’.
• Length of unemployment has a greater impact on returning to work than we initially believed.
• Employability support that includes a Health & Wellbeing service can have a measurably positive impact on our clients’ health, which in term has a positive impact on their chances of securing and sustaining work.
Understanding demand – what do employers want?
• We asked 404 employers with whom Ingeus had recently placed a long term unemployed client into work.
• The employers ranged across 33 different industrial classifications (using a 2 digit SIC) and 30 different occupational classifications (using a 2 digit SOC).
• The employers ranged from local micro businesses (employing between 1-9) to large multi-nationals employing thousands of workers
85% employers prefer good attitude over good qualifications
Understanding the supply side – what do our clients want?
We interviewed over 700 clients across Scotland about their thoughts on what knowledge they felt they lacked in finding employment and what more they thought we could do to help.

Internet and e-mail use is a key indicator of a clients likelihood of starting employment
The age of a Work Programme JSA client has an impact on their use of
Internet and email
Regardless of age the likelihood of starting work is increased significantly if the client
regularly uses the Internet and email
Times more likely to have started work than a client not regularly using the Internet and email

Improving opportunity for all clients through IT skills
Our data analytics confirms what our advisors and clients are telling us.
But it goes even further..... We now know that basic IT skills is a more significant predictor of securing and sustaining employment for our clients than basic Maths and English.

Although these initial results have not been conducted with a control, the sample size is significant enough for us to draw the initial conclusion that: ‘clients accessing this support are demonstrating a reduction in depression, anxiety and somatic symptoms’.
It is well recognised that suitable work is a health outcome, but we are finding that a holistic approach to searching for work can make you more healthy too!
We recently asked 356 Work Programme clients to complete three clinically standardised questionnaires prior to accessing Ingeus Health & Wellbeing services and again upon exiting services.

Conclusions
• Sustaining in work is mostly about getting the ‘fit’ right in the first place.
• Data is just one tool.... we are a people business
• Analytics on this scale are a product of the Work Programme – scale and scope allow us to understand more than ever before
• Our data analytics is giving us an evidence based capacity to evolve the black box.
• Health & Wellbeing, IT Literacy, and targeted pre-employment training are just three areas where our data analytics is showing us we can have a significant impact in terms of maximising the opportunities that our clients face.
