The line graph illustrates information about the percentage of people who were employed in three disparate economic sectors in the UK, over a decade between 2000 and 2010.
Overall, it can be seen that figures witnessed upward trends for the public and self-employment sectors, whereas that for the private sector got a dramatic decline. Another noticeable point is that the number of people who employed in the private sector had its peak in 2000, but the number of workers in the public sector was higher than those in the others in 2010.
To begin with, as regards the employment rate in the public sector, the employment proportion started at nearly 40% in 2000. Having remained stable in the first two years, it then fluctuated to just under 50% in 2005 and 45% in 2006, respectively. Following that, the number of workers in the public sector went up rapidly to approximately 52%, reaching its peak in a decade. Looking at the figure for people in the self-employed sector, the trend was similar. Having fluctuated around 20% for half of the decade, the rate then rocketed to 28% in 2008. Subsequently, it kept leveling off at 30% until 2010.
On the contrary, the number of people who were employed in the private area hit the highest point at nearly 50% in 2000, but it went on the opposite path. It dropped sharply from around 48% to just over 40% in the first two years after a year being stable. In the next six years, it continued decreasing dramatically until 2010 when the number of people who worked in the private sector reached the percentage of 20%.
