The graph reveals data on the number of people employed in three spheres of the UK economy over a decade from 2000 to 2010.
Overall, the graph shows that there were striking upward trends in occupation in both public and self-employment, while private-sector jobs saw a significant decrease over this period.Another striking finding is that the private division obtained the highest employment in 2000, but the federal sector had the most people employed in 2010.
Looking at the details of the social sector, employment rates started at 38% in 2000 and leveled off during the first two years. Next, there was a rapid rise by 10% in 2005, followed by a slight decline and then an improvement to around 51% over the last four years.
If we look at the self-employed sector, the trend is almost similar.Having increased by 3%, gaining 20% in the first twelve-month period of the decade, employment rates dropped again during the following year, returning to the previous figure, and levelled off at that number until 2004. Subsequently, there was a soar to 30% in 2010.
By contrast, employment in the private sector went in the opposite direction. The number of people employed in this sector plummeted nearly twice, from 48% to 20% in the given period.
