FAQs
What does the UK Job Market Visualiser show?

It maps 400+ UK occupations and lets you compare job size, pay, growth outlook, digital AI exposure, automation potential, and protection-relevant health and income pressures.

How should I interpret AI exposure and automation potential?

They are directional indicators that help you compare roles. Higher values suggest more exposure to digital change or repeatable tasks that may be affected by AI, software, or process automation.

Why are income and health vulnerability shown together?

They help connect labour-market risk to real-world protection needs. A role can face both earnings disruption and higher absence risk, which matters when considering income protection or faster treatment access.

What should I do after checking my occupation?

Use the visualiser to understand your role's pressure points, then calculate your Protection Score to see whether your current cover is likely to be strong enough for your circumstances.
