Economy & Benefits

4 government economy datasets covering benefit claims, household income, Job Centre vacancies, and key economic indicators for the Isle of Man.

Data generated: 1 May 2026

Data Quality Notice

IoM Government economic data is the most challenging to extract — published as multi-sheet XLSX files with merged cells, inconsistent layouts, and title rows that break standard parsers. It is also arguably the most important dataset on the platform. We are actively exploring alternative data sources, cleaner extraction methods, and direct API access to improve coverage and accuracy.

ℹ️About this data

Source: Isle of Man Government Open Data programme — Economy theme. Published by HM Treasury, Department for Enterprise, and the Social Security Division.

Datasets: Benefit claims and expenditure (2000-2025), Household Income & Expenditure Survey, Isle of Man in Numbers 2025, Job Centre Vacancy Statistics, and Quarterly Economic Update.

Format: Original XLSX spreadsheets downloaded from gov.im, parsed and converted to JSON for display. Some datasets contain multiple sheets — only the first sheet is shown in the sample view.

Attribution: Crown Copyright, Isle of Man Government. Data published under the Open Government Licence for public sector information.

Caveats: Figures are published periodically and may not reflect the most current position. Benefit expenditure is nominal (not inflation-adjusted). Vacancy statistics reflect the Job Centre register and do not capture all private-sector vacancies.
