The two bar charts demonstrate the employment rates by country in 2005 and 2015.
Overall, the first bar chart shows that in 2005, Japan has the most male employees and
Ireland has the most female engaged in workforce. This can be simply explained that
Japanese society is usually male – dominated and the men are also the breadwinner and
women are taught and encouraged to be a homemaker, whereas the Irish government is
more concious of the gender equality, so that women are be more empowered and have
more job opportunities.
The results of the second bar chart is not so different with Japan still has the most male
staff. However, Australia and Ireland have the same rate of women participating in labour
as 70 percent. Significantly, Australia has risen by more than 8 percent in the female
employment rate, this can be understood as the Australian government may have done a
great job of educating gender equality and giving women more chances to work like that
of Ireland. Whilst, Japan still has the less female employed, the rate just slightly rose by 3
or 4 percent.
To conclude, the two bar charts illustriate the employment rates by three countries with
Japan always has the most male and the less female, by the same token, Astralian and
Irish women taking part in labour.
