The bar graph illustrates data about the amount of leisure time enjoyed and spent by five different employment statuses for both genders in a typical week between 1998 and 1999. Overall, people who are unemployed and retired allocated the most leisure time, with significant dominance, while the amount of leisure time hours spent by females on housewives and employed part-time was lower.
Regarding the amount of time spent on leisure activity, unemployed and retired people spent much more leisure time than their counterparts, with significant dominance, with unemployed and retired males being much more leisurely than females, at more than 80% compared to under 80%, respectively. The proportion of time spent on leisure activity by employed full-time individuals followed a similar pattern, with females being less active in terms of leisure time than males, at approximately 37% compared to 50%, respectively.
As for time spent by females, it is clear that the proportion of leisure time was higher among females who were employed part-time and housewives, with the former spending lower time than the latter, at around two-fifths compared to half, respectively.
