Employment and unemployment are mutually exclusive terms. A person cannot be both employed and unemployed. Nor can a group of people be simultaneously more frequently employed and more frequently unemployed than another. However, labour statistics recently released by the from the 2021 Census of England and Wales suggest just this.
