Employment (job) involving taking (extracting) natural resources from the earth (land or sea) This is called . farmer Employment that involves making (manufacturing) raw materials into something else. E.g. making cotton into a shirt. This is called . Employment that involves the worker providing a SERVICE. This is called TERTIARY Employment that involves using high technology and innovation. This is called EMPLOYMENT STRUCTURE Jobs in all countries can be split into four dif ferent sectors: Primar y - jobs that extract raw materials directly from the ear th or sea - e.g. farming, fishing, forestr y and mining. Secondar y - jobs that process and manufacture the primar y products e.g. furniture manufacture and car assembly. Ter tiar y - jobs that provide a ser vice - e.g. education, health, of fice work and retail. Quaternar y - jobs that provide exper t information and help - e.g. IT suppor t and biosciences. In the UK most of our jobs are in the ter tiar y sector. This has not always been the case, with most jobs traditionally found in the primar y and secondar y sectors. Lots of these jobs have since moved abroad and subsequently there has been a rise in ter tiar y and some Task In your notes, divide a page into 4 sections Add the name of each EMPLOYMENT SECTOR, describe each and add 2 examples of the job type in each box. 3.1A - THE BALANCE BET WEEN EMPLOYMENT SECTORS VARIES SPATIALLY AND IS CHANGING Today we will use the CLARKE- FISHER MODEL to INVESTIGATE changing EMPLOYMENT STRUCTURE in countries at different stages of DEVELOPMENT The basic idea- As a country increases its wealth or develops the number of people employed in each employment sector changes. EMPLOYMENT STRUCTURES Which one is which? Task- complete the employment structure worksheet THE CLARKE FISHER MODEL These dif ferences are shown in Clarke fishers model TIME INCREASES Pre-industrial Stage – the LDC’s have high amounts of primary industries due to the fact that there is a lack of education and they are mainly subsidence farmers. There are very few jobs in the tertiary and manufacturing sectors, due to lack of money to set up these factories or build them. THE CLARKE FISHER MODEL Industrial Stage – These dif ferences are shown in Clarke fishers model TIME INCREASES As time passes, manufacturing increases, New factories spring up in many locations. So the secondary sector grows in importance. The tertiary sector also grows (but not as fast) The primary sector continues to decline in this period as the country industrialises. THE CLARKE FISHER MODEL These dif ferences are shown in Clarke fishers model TIME INCREASES Post-industrial Stage In this stage the tertiary sector become most important. Secondary sector tends to die away. As more people start to live in towns, there is a growing demand for various services from health and education to transport and finance. Quaternary jobs begin to form too as the country becomes wealthier. HOW RELIABLE IS THE MODEL? This model is based on what happened in developed countries like Britain. It may not work in the same way for developing countries which may bypass some part of the model. For example, some developing countries might encourage tourism (tertiary) in their country and bypass the Industrial Stage, such as the Gambia in Africa. Add these statements your copy of the model LIVING GRAPH ACTIVIT Y DEINDUSTRIALISATION INDUSTRIALISATION New jobs in hi tech are created due to countries wealth, increasing wealth further Country increases wealth and factories are built, secondary jobs increase Many factory workers lose their jobs Primary sector continues to decline as not enough money in this type of work Most people live off the land and work in the primary sector CHINA/ MEXICO BURKINA FASO UK/ USA Country is manufacturing many of the world’s goods as secondary jobs peak Tertiary jobs increase as services are needed for factory workers THE CLARKE FISHER MODEL CHINA/ MEXICO BURKINA FASO UK/ USA THE CLARKE FISHER MODEL TASK Annotate your copy of the model with 1. The name of a country at each stage, and type of country it is (LIC, HIC, BRIC) 2. The terms industrialisation and deindustrialisation (define each) 3. A description of what tends to happen at each stage 4. A sketch of, or link to the pie chart that shows the employment structure at each stage HOW DO THE JOBS PEOPLE DO DIFFER AROUND THE WORLD? Some countries, like Mexico, have experienced industrialisation . This is the social and economic change that transforms a place from one that relies heavily on primary employment into one of secondary (manufacturing). Mexico was originally mainly focused on agriculture but the growth of industry meant many people moved from the rural areas to the cities. In 1950s manufacturing became the biggest provider of wealth. Manufacturing companies, often with headquarters based in the USA, have been attracted here due to : A large and highly skilled workforce Cheap labour Low distribution costs Some countries, like USA, have experienced deindustrialisation. This is the decline in secondary (manufacturing) industry and the growth in tertiary and quaternary industries. USA has the largest economy in the world. Deindustrialisation in the 1980s forced manufacturing to move to lower-cost sites (mostly abroad) and led to the growth of the service sector. Today we will CONTRAST the importance of different EMPLOYMENT SECTORS and working conditions in countries at different stages of DEVELOPMENT. WHAT ABOUT WORKING CONDITIONS? Working conditions are better in . In people are paid fair wages and have regular breaks and get sick pay In many jobs are informal, meaning the worker has no contract and can be sacked without warning. In many workers work long hours for minimal pay TASK Copy out and fill in the blanks with either DEVELOPED or DEVELOPING countries. INSERT FORMAL/ INFORMAL JOBS CARD SORT DEINDUSTRIALISED (DEVELOPED) COUNTRIES (UK, USA, JAPAN) Tertiary jobs dominate in these countries as most people have disposable income and the government have set up services like schools and hospitals. There are secondary jobs in some areas but the numbers have declined from 100 years ago Primary jobs are minimal, but some rural areas have people working in farming and fishing (North East Scotland and Cornwall) Quaternary jobs are increasing in techno hub areas, like Cambridge and East London and along the M4 corridor in the UK and Silicon Valley, California, USA . WHO DOES THE JOB/S? Many women work full time jobs, but part time work has rapidly increased so now there are more women and men doing part time hours. It is increasingly common for both adults in a family to work and for single parents to be working single parents although many work part time Many tertiary and quaternary jobs are flexible with hours, so fewer people work 9-5 5 days a week than did 50 years ago. Children can work but hours are restricted as is the type of job they can do, there is also a minimum level of pay they should receive. In the UK there is a minimum wage Workers have contracts so they pay tax and can receive sick pay and receive a pension when the time comes. BRIC/ NIC COUNTRIES- CHINA INDUSTRIAL COUNTRIES These countries tend to have a higher percentage of workers employed in manufacturing goods (SECONDARY INDUSTRY). Working conditions are often poor and work is often low paid with long hours. Many people work without a contract, so they can get started quickly but this means no sick pay and no protection from harsh working conditions Many families are split up in these countries- often younger men (and increasingly women too) will leave rural families and head to a big city to work, live in overcrowded conditions in small flats with basic facilities and work very long hours. LDC (LEAST DEVELOPED COUNTRIES)PRE INDUSTRIAL COUNTRIES In these countries, there are tertiary jobs, but fewer as the governments have not had the money to build hospitals, schools and libraries and the population as a whole do not have such a large amount of disposable income, therefore fewer hotels, restaurants etc exist, thus there are fewer tertiary jobs than in BRICs and HICs Many people live a SUBSISTENCE lifestyle, they provide for themselves what they need and trade, e.g. they grow their own food and have enough to eat, make their own clothes and breed their own animals, any even build their own houses. Much of the work is therefore not formally paid work and therefore there is less tax paid - preventing the country boosting its economy. Many people here do primary jobs like farming, fishing, mining etc. In larger towns and cities there are more tertiary jobs and these are increasing in most countries as the world becomes increasingly globalised. Like in BRIC nations many here who work for a company work without a contract, meaning no sick pay and no minimum wage or control over working conditions so they also work in dangerous conditions PRACTICE EXAM QUESTION F Which country has the highest percentage working in the TERTIARY sector?
