The bar graphs compare employment figures in five leisure-related industries between 1989 and 1999.
The hotel industry employed the most people, almost 300, 000, in 1989. It was closely followed by the sports and food industries, which had just fewer than 285, 000 workers each. Far fewer people worked in the fields of culture (82, 800) and travel (60, 900).
Excluding culture, all fields of employment increased over the 10-year period. The largest rise was in the travel industry. Employment in this industry almost doubled to 114, 200 in 1999. The number of food-related jobs also rose significantly and by 1999 this industry had overtaken the hotel industry as the biggest employer, with just over 350, 000 workers. Employment in hotel and sports industries increased steadily over the same period, while the number of culture-based jobs dropped slightly, from 82, 800 to 77, 400.
To sum up, overall employment in tourism-related industries rose steadily from 1989 to 1999. The only exception to this was in the field of culture, where employment decreased slightly.
