The two pie charts below show some
employment patterns in Great Britain in 1992.
Summarise the information by selecting and
reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
Write at least 150 words.
The pie charts make a comparative study of the proportion of males and
females employed in 6 broad categories,
divided into manual and non-manual occupations.
Among the women the highest proportion was
engaged in clerical or related work, which was closely followed by
other non-manual employments. On
the other hand, managerial and professional jobs were the most
popular occupations with men at 36% and clerical positions
were selected by only an insignificant 9%.
A considerable portion of males also were interested in craft
or related jobs and other manual labour, accounting for half of the total
men-folk. In contrast, the only major
manual occupation that women took up was other manual labour at 27%. Other non-manual professions were not very popular
among both males and females. The
least percentage of workers both categories were general labourers.
In conclusion, more women performed non-manual occupations,
whereas a greater percentage of men preferred manual jobs.
