Employment distribution in EUROSTAT countries
Description
According to the three-sector theory, employment shifts from the primary
sector (raw material extraction), to the secondary sector (industry, energy,
and construction), and then to the tertiary sector (services) as economies
develop. The 'eurostat_employment' data set contains EUROSTAT data on
employment, aggregated for both sexes and all ages, distributed by economic
activity in 2008 for 29 EUROSTAT member countries.
A related variable is the logarithm of gross domestic product per person in
EUR at current prices ('logGDP'). For exploratory purposes, it is also
categorised as a binary variable indicating values above or below the median
('Binary GDP').
The employment composition has 11 parts:
Primary sector
Manufacturing
Energy
Construction
Trade repair transport
Hotels restaurants
Financial intermediation
Real estate
Educ admin defense soc sec
Health social work
Other services
