The graph represents the percentage of female workers and workers aged 50 or above in the human resources of the UK. Also, the graph shows the data for women’s population contributed to the workforce from 1971 to 2019, whereas for the workers aged 50 or above, it is from 1990 to 2019.
The most noticeable feature of the graph is that both trends show almost 10% growth in the workforce of their individual category during their entire periods mentioned. Additionally, the percentage of female workers is always higher than that of those aged 50 or above.
The percentage involvement of the female workers has been enhanced from 37% in 1971 to 47% in 2019, while the corresponding value of the workers aged 50 or above has been dramatically increased from 21% in 1990 to 32% in 2019. Consequently, during the year from 1990 to 2019, the growth in women workforce is marginal or almost steady.
In summary, it can be easily concluded that the overall increment in the percentage of women workers of 10% has been noticed in a span of 49 years. But the rate of increase in the workers aged 50 or above is more and hence, its overall increment of 11% has been found in a period of about 30 years.
