The table outlines gender distribution across six employment sectors in New Zealand in 1993 and 2003.
Overall, men dominated male-centric fields like IT, Building, and Farming, despite slight declines over the decade. Conversely, women narrowed the gender gap across most industries, most notably in Services, which saw the largest surge in male participation.
