<p>As of the 30<sup>th</sup> November 2021, over 311,000 jobs have been approved for
funding and around 110,000 Kickstart jobs have been started by young people. Over
223,000 jobs have been advertised and made available for young people to apply to
through the scheme</p><p> </p><p>Below are tables listing the number of Kickstart
jobs which have been made available and started by young people to date by geographical
area of Great Britain and work sector. The figures used are correct as of the 2<sup>nd</sup>
December 2021 and these figures have been rounded according to departmental standards.</p><p>
</p><p>Jobs made available and starts quoted here include some unfunded Kickstart
jobs. Over time, some previously approved jobs have been removed where the employer
chose not to follow up the application. Included in the Great Britain total are a
small number of jobs made available (less than 100 in total) that have an unrecorded
job location. Data on approved jobs is taken from a snapshot of the Kickstart system
at a point in time. This figure can be affected by retrospective changes resulting
from applications being rescinded.</p><p> </p><p>The number of approved jobs is defined
as the number of jobs associated with approved applications recorded on the Kickstart
application system on the date above. This total excludes approved jobs that have
been withdrawn from the Kickstart Scheme by agreement with employers and gateways.</p><p>
</p><p>Although care is taken when processing and analysing Kickstart applications,
referrals and starts, the data collected might be subject to the inaccuracies inherent
in any large-scale recording system, which has been developed quickly.</p><p> </p><p>The
management information presented here has not been subjected to the usual standard
of quality assurance associated with official statistics but is provided in the interests
of transparency. Work is ongoing to improve the quality of information available for
the programme.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Table 1- Kickstart jobs made available and started
