The chart demonstrates labour rates in three zones of the economy, in the UK over a decade-long time span, from 2000 to 2010. From an overall perspective, it is apparent that there were significant upward trends in the employment rates of the public sector and the self-employed, while that of the private sector witnessed a dramatic fall over a period. Looking at the details, in 2000, the employment rate of the private sector was 48%, which meant that more people worked in this sector than the other two. Subsequently, the rate fell gradually from 2000 to 2003, decreasing to forty percent. At this point, there was a steep reduction in the first half of the decade, slumping to almost thirty percent. In the last half of decade, the rate continued to go down rapidly, diving to twenty percent. The employment rate hit bottom at twenty percent in 2010. Having remained stable at approximately thirty-eight percent in the first 2 years, the percent of people in the public sector rose sharply between 2002 and 2004, soaring more than forty percent over a two-year period. Next, the rate grew quickly until it had a slight drop in 2006. There was a minimal rise in the percentage of people who worked in the public sector, to just over fifty percent in 2010, this figure being the peak level of employment rate during the whole period. As regards the self-employed sector, in the first half of the decade, the figure witnessed a mild fluctuation, hovering around 18% and 20%. In the remaining time of the period
