The graph demonstrates the proportion by gender of citizens from 4 nations who were employed in 2002.
Overall, it can be clearly seen that Norway had the highest employment rates and in contrast, South Africa had the lowest figures. Both Norway and Finland did not have much differences in percentages according to gender, whereas in Chile, it is evident that males dominated the jobs.
Taking scandinavian countries first, Norway possessed the highest number of employees, almost 80% for men and just over 70% for women. Similarly, in Finland, more than 60% of both populations were employed.
As for the global south, Chile had a massive gap in employing people according to their gender. While 70% of males were employed, which is slightly more than that of Finland, only half the amount of female counterparts were working. In the case of South Africa, half of the citizens had a job, with half of the men working and almost two-fifth of the women doing the same.
