The line chart details the percentage of workers in Australia according to 5 different industries from 1962 to 2012. The big picture suggests that the most noticeable growth and the vast majority of jobs was concentrated in the services industry. There was decline in the workforce for jobs in agriculture and manufacturing, and slight rises for the remaining two industries — mining and construction.
In 1962, approximately 52% of Australians worked in services, a figure far above the next closest sector, manufacturing (27%). From that point onwards, service jobs grew rapidly to reach 72% by 1992 and then growth tapered off and rose more moderately to finish the period at just under 80%. In contrast, manufacturing as an employment option was stable over the first decade before a consistent decline led to a final figure of 10% in 2012.
In terms of the less common jobs, agricultural workers declined at steady intervals from just above 10% in 1962 to a low of 4% in 2012. In comparison, mining and construction jobs were generally stable with minor growth, rising from 9% and 1% to 10% and 2%, respectively.
