The area of the blocks
forming the chart is in
proportion to the number
employees gained or
lost in the industry.
The width of the bars shows
the overall share of jobs
between the industries,
the length of the bars
indicates each industry's
specific gender/status
bias.
Figure 8.4 The change shows a clear pattern, drawn here to the same scale as
the previous image. The loss of male full-time jobs in primary and manufacturing
industries is marked, especially in mining related areas. These falls were not offset
by the rises (roughly equal for both sexes) in the banking and insurance service
industries, especially as so many of the new jobs were part-time jobs.
