The line graph illustrates the unemployment rates from 1991 to 2005 in three European nations, while the employment rates of males and females in those countries are demonstrated in the table.

Overall, while Spain had the highest figure for jobless people, the opposite was true for Germany. Additionally, the percentage of males in labour force was always higher than that of their female counterparts in all questioned nations.

In terms of the first graph, the unemployment figure for Spain soared from 13% to its peak of 18% in 1993. After levelling off till 1995, it plummeted to the lowest level of 8% in 2005. Contrastingly, starting from a low of 4%, the proportion of the jobless in Germany increased gradually to 8% in 1997 and reached its highest point of 10% in the last year. Germany experienced a steady climb in the unemployment rate from 8% to 12 over nearly the first decade, then it fell gradually to its initial level.

Regarding the gender distribution in labour force, Italy reported the most noticeable disparity with 77.1% males versus 37.8% females. This was followed by Germany when the proportion of female employees was over a half. In Spain, the data of men who were employed was twice that of women, 66,2% compared to 32.3%.
