The bar charts give information on how a number of employees in domains, such as agriculture, industry, and services, had changed between 1980 and 2010, in three different countries.

Overall, it is clear that in all countries, the industry made significant contributions to the number of workers in both periods. To compare, the figures for agriculture and services showed a decrease coming to the second period.

In 1980, in the number of employees, there was a preponderance of industry in all countries, except China, where agriculture was the main supplement of workers, making about 70% of all of them. While the number of people who worked in service was similar in all countries, being around 50%.

Coming to 2010, in Germany, the USA, and Japan, the majority of people(approximately 80%) worked in an industry sphere. In China, the contrast between working spheres was not very high, even though there was a slight dominance of agriculture(around 50%).
