The chart demonstrates the percentage of workers in three sectors among four different countries in 1980 and 2010.
Overall, the percentage of industrialized workers was the highest among all three countries, Germany, the USA, and Japan in both of the time periods. However, China had the highest percentage of agriculture workers at approximately 70% in 1980.
Focusing on the percentage of industrialized workers in 2010, both countries, Germany and Japan rose significantly to around 80%, while the USA recorded exactly 70%. Moreover, the percentage of agriculture workers in China dramatically decreased by 20% in 2010.
In contrast, the percentage of service workers, both charts demonstrate similar trends among all four countries in 1980, before slightly decreasing to approximately 40% in 2010. Compared to other sectors, agriculture is uncommon in countries other than China in both time periods. Finally, we can summarize that industrial work was the most dominant sector, followed by services, and agriculture, respectively.
