Dataset metadata
This dataset provides 2011 Census estimates that classify the workday population in England and Wales by country of birth.
The estimates are as at census day, 27 March 2011.
The workday population is an estimate of the population during the working day. It includes everybody who works in an
area, wherever they usually live, and all respondents who live in the area but do not work.
The following population groups are excluded from the workday population of an area:
Those living in England and Wales but working in Scotland, Northern Ireland, outside the UK or on offshore
installations,
Those with a place of work in England and Wales but who are not usually resident in England and Wales, and
Short-term residents
Statistical Disclosure Control
In order to protect against disclosure of personal information from the 2011 Census, there has been swapping of records in
the Census database between different geographic areas, and so some counts will be affected. In the main, the greatest
effects will be at the lowest geographies, since the record swapping is targeted towards those households with unusual
characteristics in small areas.
More details on the ONS Census disclosure control strategy may be found on the Statistical Disclosure Control page on the
ONS web site.
Revisions and Corrections
2014-05-23 09:30:00 A production error was discovered in this table originally published 31 October 2013. The workday
populations for eight Output Areas were incorrectly allocated to the wrong Output Area code. The eight Output Areas
affected were: E00015045, E00023289, E00049002, E00159643, E00172150, E00170915, E00172167, E00174876.
Correcting the figures for these areas has resulted in the figures for five Middle Layer Super Output Areas (MSOAs) and two
Local Authorities also being changed. The Local Authorities affected were Coventry and Warwick, where 1,449 people were
originally incorrectly allocated to the workday population in Coventry rather than Warwick. This error has now been
corrected, and the workday population has been correctly allocated to all areas affected. No other published releases or
tables were affected, the people who were misallocated in the workday population were correctly allocated in the usually
resident population. ONS apologises for any inconvenience caused.

Country of Birth
Country of birth is the country in which a person was born. The country of birth question included six tick box responses one for each of the four parts of the UK, one for the Republic of Ireland, and one for 'Elsewhere'. Where a person ticked
'Elsewhere', they were asked to write in the current name of the country in which they were born. Responses are assigned
codes based on the National Statistics Country Classification.
The grouping of countries within the classification is broadly regional, but takes into account the grouping of European Union
(EU) countries. Countries in the EU are grouped into those that were EU members in March 2001, and those that became
members (Accession countries) between April 2001 and March 2011 as part of the EU enlargement process.
