What this means for people

When these industries produce less, fewer goods are made and some of those jobs are at risk.

The Index of Production measures how much the UK makes in manufacturing, mining, energy and water.

How to read this

An index, not pounds

100 is the level in 2023. A figure of 98 means output is about 2% below that year. It is not a cash amount.

Factories, mines, energy and water

Manufacturing, mining, electricity, gas and water are included. Services and construction are not. Services are most of the economy, so this can move differently from GDP.

Months jump around

A single month can rise or fall by more than the pace over the latest three months.
