The graph highlights data about the rate of people who were employed by public, private and self-employed sectors in the UK, over a ten year period. Overall, there were considerable upward trends in the employment of both public and self-employed sectors, whereas the percentage of private sector illustrated a significant decline over the period in question.
Looking at the details, as regards public sector, the proportion started at nearly 40% in 2000 and maintained at the same level until 2002. Following this, the rate increased gradually between 2002 and 2005 and it reached at just under 50%. Next, despite dropping sharply to about 45% in 2006, the rate of employment in 2007-2010 demonstrated a constant rise and it peaked at just over 50% which meant that it had the highest percentage of three sectors in that year.
With respect to the self-employed sector, the proportion of employment started at approximately 20% in 2000, then the figure possessed a fluctuation in the first half of the decade. After that, the proportion went up gradually to 30% between 2005 and 2008 and then leveled off for the next year.
By contrast, the percentage of employment by private sector went in the opposite direction. There was a steady drop from just under 50% to 20%, besides 2002-2003. It meant that it had the lowest rate among three sectors.
