The given bar chart illustrates the percentage of American adults in different fields of
employment from 2003 to 2013.
In general, it can be seen that there were increases in the percentages of people working
in education training, the hotel industry, the building industry, and the self-employment
sector, while the medical, and business sectors saw decreases over this ten-year period.
The unemployment rate also significantly dropped during this time. In 2003, approximate-
ly 8%, 3%, and 10% of American adults were employed in education training, the hotel
industry, and building respectively. The figures for these fields all rose to around 20%
over the following ten years. Additionally, the percentage of selfemployed people almost
tripled, from around 10% to just over 30% during the period. In 2013, around a quarter
of the American working population chose to run their own businesses, which had seen a
two-fold decrease from 2003. Similarly, percentages of those in the medical industry also
dropped by half, from 20% to 10%, over the period.
