The graph illustrates the portion of the distributions of the UK laborers in five main fields: manufacturing, services, agriculture/fishing, construction, energy/water in 1841 and 2011.
Overall, the workforce allocated in services and construction terms increased between 1841 and 2011, while the contribution of other industries decreased. In addition, in 1841, the highest number of workers was in the manufacturing industry and the lowest number of laborers was in power/water fields. Whereas, the highest position was taken by services and the other was replaced by manufacturing and agriculture/fishing industries.
To begin with, in 1841, the allocation of workers in manufacturing, services, and agriculture/fishing constituted to the majority of the workforce in the UK 36%, 33%, and 22% in return. In 2011, the proportions of manufacturing and agriculture/fishing labor sharply dropped to just above a tenth and 1%, while that percentage of the services industry experienced a significant growth and peaked at just over 80%.
Regarding the other two sectors, the distribution of the labors in construction and energy/water fields accounted for the minority of that portion throughout the period. The percentage of the employees in the construction industry slightly went up to 8% in 2011 by an increase of 3%. Meanwhile, that figure in the energy/water field saw a slight decrease by 2%. Moreover, this figure also was the lowest in both 1841 and 2011.
