Employment for Men and Women Bar Task 1 For 2022 || WWW.AMANIELTS.IN ||

 

The bar charts detail men and women between the ages of 60 and 64 working in Belgium, the USA, Japan, and Indonesia in 1970 and 2000. Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that men had higher employment figures for all countries in both years with the largest disparity being the difference between men and women in Belgium and the USA in 2000. Proportions of males and females employed decreased across all nations, especially in Belgium.

In the United States in 1970, 88% of men between 60 and 64 were employed compared to just under 80% of women. These proportions were broadly similar to Belgium (79% and 62%) and Indonesia (83% and 63%). The disparity in Japan was slightly larger with 78% of men working and 55% of women.

By 2000, figures for the United States had declined to 79% of men and 41% of women, the second largest drop recorded. Belgium had the largest fall for female employment (down to fewer than 10% working) with a more moderate fall for men to 51%. In Indonesia, employed males fell to 72% as their counterparts slipped by 12% to 50%. Finally, Japan displayed the narrowest gap between genders with 51% of men working and 48% of women.
