P.137 Understanding employment data
• Primary production employment dropped from 1.5% in 1980 to 0.4% in 1999. It does not necessarily mean that primary production employed fewer workers in 1999.
• Labor force (= number of worker) in 1999 > that in 1980, i.e., 3.36 million in 1999 & 2.32 million in 1980.
• Primary producers in 1980 = 34800 = 2.32 million x 1.5%• Primary producers in 1999 = 13436 = 3.36 million x 0.4%
