The bar chart shows the percentage of people
who have part-time jobs in the countries that
make up the United Kingdom, both in 1980 and in
2010. There'has generally been a small increase
in part-time workers from 1980 to 2010, except in
Northern Ireland. The graph also shows that
England and Wales have far more part-time
workers than Northern Ireland and Scotland.
In 1980, 25% of people in England worked part
time. The only country with a greater percentage of part-time workers was Wales, with
around 33% working part time. Both countries saw an increase in the percentage of people
working part time in 2010. In England, the percentage rose to over 30% and in Wales
percentage rose to just over 35%.
Scotland had the smallest percentage of part-time workers in 1980, with just over ten per
cent. However, this rose to almost 20% in 2010 which is a large increase. Lastly, Northern
Ireland was the only country which had a decreasing percentage of part-time workers. In
1980, it had around 15% of people in part-time work. This decreased by a couple of per
cent in 2010.
The pie chart illustrates the career choices of
Brighton University's 2019 graduates, giving the
percentages who worked in each of various sectors
after finishing university. Overwhelmingly, industry
and government were the most popular choices.
Just under half the students went into industry, with
service industries attracting more Brighton
graduates than any other sector by far — almost a
third (33.0%). About half that number (16.3%) took
jobs in manufacturing.
Politics and public service were the next most
popular choice, accounting for nearly a fifth of
graduates. Just over 12% went into politics and a
further 5.6% chose the civil service. The other
significant career choices were education (about
15%) and two others: transportation and warehousing, with 7.8%; and science and
technology with 7.3%.
The least popular choices included work in the charitable sector and careers in sport, both
of which were chosen by well under 1% of graduates. Finally, 2.8% entered work in other,
unspecified, sectors.
The line graph shows how many people
visited four museums in different countries in
the world between 1980 and 2015.
All in all, the Louvre Museum was the most
popular, with between approximately 8 and 9
million visitors each year. The least popular
were the Shenzhen and the London Science
Museum, with no more than 4 million visitors
each year.
The number of visitors to the London Science
Museum decreased slowly from just over 4
million in 1980 to around 2 million in 2015. By
contrast, the visitors to the Vatican Museum
increased from just under 5 million in 1980 to around 9 million in 2015.
In addition, the number of visitors to the Shenzhen Museum stayed about the same over the
thirty-five-year period. They fell from just under 4 million in 1980 to just over 3 million in
2000 and then rose to just under 4 million again in 2015.
The table shows the percentage of
women in senior management positions
in three companies from 1975 to 2015.
While more women were in senior
positions at Finsbury Ltd than the other
two companies in 1975 at 16%, the trend
was fairly erratic with a 2% drop to 14% in
1980, followed by a rise of 1% five years
later. In 1990, women held 7% more top
management jobs than in 1985. After a
slight drop back to 20% in 2000, by 2015
26% of top posts were filled by women.
By contrast, at Eldan Ltd women fared much better. In 1975, 3% of senior posts were
occupied by women with no change five years on. By 1985, the figure had increased to
14%, doubling to 28% in 1990. Ten years afterwards, there was a 5% increase in female
senior management jobs with a near twofold jump in 2015 to stand at 64%, the highest for
the three companies.
The situation was less remarkable at Bamforth Ltd than the other two firms except for the
year 2015. In 1975, the percentage of senior posts held by women was 9% climbing at the
rate of 2% in each subsequent period until 2000, after which it leapt to 46%.
From the data, it is clear that women dominated senior posts at Eldan by 2015.
