Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
This indicator reports the off-flow rate for cohorts of claimants who have flowed onto benefit in a given period. For example, across all ages 94.0% of those starting to receive Jobseeker’s Allowance Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
between January and March 2014 had stopped receiving benefit 52 weeks later; across all ages 50.2% of those who claimed Employment Support Allowance between October and December 2013 Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
had stopped receiving the benefit 65 weeks later. Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set

This measure is included because Jobcentre Plus adds value by reducing the time it takes for a customer to move off benefits. The Jobseekers Allowance portion of the Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
measure directly affects the claimant count, and the measure as a whole will provide useful information as to whether the department's spending review settlement is being implemented. Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set

Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
An increase in the off-flow rate indicates that an improvement has been achieved. However, the indicator level will be affected by benefit conditionality and operational changes, Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
seasonal variation and to the economic cycle. For example, in a recession, even if Jobcentre Plus is performing well, the off-flow rate is likely to fall. Also, as Incapacity Benefit claims are Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
re-assessed for Employment and Support Allowance the off-flow rate will fall. Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
Off-flow rates vary naturally over time, and will be impacted by policy changes, as well as changes in the economy. Over the time period covered by the Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
Indicator, the Department has enacted Welfare Reform changes that have changed the composition of both of these benefits. The Department has also stopped some employment Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
programmes and introduced new programmes. Therefore any inter-year comparisons should be mindful of this context. Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set Not set
