The data in this note are an update to the GLA’s creative industry employment and firm count statistics. They include estimates using the new Standard Industrial Classification (SIC2007). This makes possible a more precise classification of the creative industries.
Two sets of estimates are reported – the first comparable with the DCMS figures (using the Labour Force Survey, a household survey) and the second with the GLA’s London workforce figures (using the Annual Business Survey). The first identifies Creative Industry employment in London of 658,000 in 2010, up from 599,800 in 2009. The second identifies Creative Industry employment in London of 593,800 in 2009 (2010 ABS data are not yet available).
The sector which employed the most creative workers in 2010 was Software and Electronic Publishing with 113,900.
