Number of adult social care (ASC) jobs in day care services filled by males, all sectors (19130) Metric type

Help text
This is the total number of adult social care jobs in day care services filled by male staff members. This is across both the independent and local authority sectors.


This metric is sourced from Skills for Care Adult Social Care Workforce Estimates. Good quality information about the workforce is vital to help improve the planning and quality of social care services, which will improve outcomes for people who use these services, both now and in the future. Skills for Care uses data from the Adult Social Care Workforce Data Set (ASC-WDS), formerly known as the National Minimum Data Set for Social Care (NMDS-SC), as a basis for creating estimates of the size, structure and characteristics of the whole adult social care workforce. ASC-WDS data is as at March each year for the independent sector and the preceding September for local authorities. New estimates are published each year.


The ASC-WDS, as a non-mandatory return for the independent sector, does not have 100% coverage of the adult social care sector, however, it does have a large enough sample to provide a solid basis for creating reliable and precise adult social care sector and workforce estimates at both a national and local level.
This information refers to the adult social care sector as those jobs in the local authority sector and the independent sectors only. Jobs working for direct payment recipients and those working in the NHS are not included in these workforce estimates.
