Jobs growth in January is expected to have bounced after a weak result in December, but not enough to prevent another small rise in the unemployment rate.
Official labour force figures to be released on Thursday are expected to show the number of people with jobs rose by 15,000 in January, after a surprise fall of 22,600 in December.
