About this data
- The employer list comes from the Home Office register of licensed sponsors (workers), checked every weekday.
- Sector comes from the employer's industry codes on Companies House. Where an employer isn't on Companies House, it's worked out from words in its name, or shown as “Not known”.
- Local council comes from the register's town. Where the Companies House address is in the same town, its postcode gives the exact council.
- Registered office addresses come from Companies House and are shown only where the match is reliable. We don't hold websites, emails or social media pages: the links on each employer search the web for them.
- “Added” dates and the changes page start from the day this site began tracking the register.
