A significant proportion of those working in engineering occupations do so outside of engineering industries, which suggests that engineering skills are widely required and used beyond the sector itself. Chapter 1 draws on a range of data sources, including from the ONS, OECD and UKCES, to give an overview of the role of the engineering sector in the broader UK economy.
