Attribution
  Cite the edition as: Verellax Index, Edition One, 2 October 2026.
  Cite a live figure as: Verellax workforce intelligence, live specs · week ending 2 October 2026.
  Where you quote a figure rather than reproduce an exhibit, carry its
  population and its basis with it, as the exhibits do.

Reproduction
  Verellax exhibits may be reproduced in editorial coverage, in full and
  unaltered, with the attribution above.
  Each exhibit carries its source line in the image. Reproduce it whole: do
  not crop, recolour, retype or otherwise alter it, and do not remove the
  source line.
  This grant is for editorial use. It does not cover redistribution of the
  underlying record, resale, or inclusion in a commercial product.
  A custom grant, not CC BY 4.0. CC BY permits adaptation, and adaptation
  includes cropping, which the source line cannot survive.
  For anything else, write to hello@verellax.com.

The wordmark and the mark
  Do not retype the wordmark, recolour it, or set it in another face. Clear
  space is built into every master: the placed image runs three times the
  intended mark height. The stop is a brand device; in running copy the name
  reads Verellax, capital V, no stop.

Edition One
  Published 2 October 2026. It reads 57,134 roles advertised in Q3 2026
  by 284 employers in seven markets. Read it free at
  https://verellax.com/index/edition-one. Journalists can have the PDF
  without the sign-up form, and a cut the edition does not print: write to
  hello@verellax.com.
  Figures on the index, markets and sectors pages are live reads that
  re-read every Monday, so they will differ from the edition; carry the
  as-at date with any live figure.
  Edition Two publishes in January 2027.
