Task 1: The charts below show the percentage of Australian men and women in three

age groups who were employed in 1984, 2001, and 2014.

The graph compares the proportion of male and female employees In Australia in 1984,2001
and 2014 accordingly to their age.Significant differences between these gender groups are
evident.
As can be seen from the bar chart middle-aged workers prevailed across all the years and
ages,except women in 1984,when the proportion was almost equal with teenagers,just under
60%.It is noticeable,that the least share was in the oldest age category.However,in 2014 it
slightly outnumbered the youngest one reaching the point of 60%.
Looking into details,in 2001 the statistics for men and women followed a similar
pattern,whereas fifteen years before,it had some differences.For example,there were less 35-
44 years old female workers compared to those,under 20 years old, though for male ones it
was the opposite.As the data suggests,in 2014 there teen female employees were second
highest after the group of 35-44, in sharp contrast to their male counterparts.
