This data shows that the number of women in the UK workforce population increased gradually from 37% in 1971 to 47% in 2019. Another trend shows that the number of people aged 50 or above increased steadily from 21% in 1990 to 32% in 2019.
The proportion of women in the workforce increased steadily from 1971 to 1990, but after 1990, the data increased gradually from 1990 to 2019. The percentage of the UK workforce that is female increased gradually by 10% from 1971 to 2019.
The data does not show the details of the number of people aged 50 or above between 1971 and 1990, but the number of female workers grew continuously from 1971 to 2019. The number of people aged 50 or above increased steadily from 21% in 1990 to 32% in 2019. The number of people aged 50 or above increased steadily by 11% from 1990 to 2019.
Comparing the two data sets, the number of people aged 50 or above increased by 11% from 1990 to 2019 over a shorter period, while the number of female workers increased by 10% between 1971 and 2019. Therefore, the number of people aged 50 or above increased more steadily.
