The line graphs show the production and demand for steel in million tonnes and

the number of workers employed in the steel industry in the UK in 2010.

The graphs given compare the steel production with actual demand and illustrate the number of
employees taken on in the steel industry during 2010 in UK.
It is noticeable that the amount of steel generated far exceeded the actual sales, except December.
The labourers employed in the steel industry experienced a consistent and noticeable fall.
In the first three months, the amount of steel manufactured, beginning to be twice as much as the
demand, at 4000, showed a fluctuation betwern 4000 and 5000, corresponding with a consistent
rise in the demand. Turning to the next four months, the production hovered around 4000
whereas the need was volatile, ranging from around 2000 to nearly 3000. From July, both figures
changed dramatically, while the production of steel ended the period with a plummet to its
bottom at under 1000, the demand bounced back to 2000 to exceed the amount of steel produced
after falling to practically 0.
As for the number of workers employed, the figure showed a rise in the first month before
plunging dramatically to 3000. From March to September, the laborers in the steel industry
oscillated between 2500 and 3500. Afterwards, the figure dropped steadily and ended the year at
1000.
