Occupational Structure
The graph to the right shows Welburn's occupational census data for 1881. Welburn's job sector was mainly in agriculture as can be seen from the graph. Although a lot of employment shows as 'Persons without specific data' and 'Unknown occupation' within the graph the known data portrays that the majority of occupations within the Welburn area were involved in the agriculture sector. If compared to the recent 2011 Census data for Welburn, it can be seen that an extrembely small proportion of people currently work in the agriculture sector. As society has changed it seems most economically active residents are working within the retail and wholesale job sector.

Famous quotes containing the words occupational and/or structure:
“There is, I confess, a hazard to the philosophical analysis of humor. If one rereads the passages that have been analyzed, one may no longer be able to laugh at them. This is an occupational hazard: Philosophy is taking the laughter out of humor.”
—A.P. Martinich (b. 1946)
“Who says that fictions only and false hair
Become a verse? Is there in truth no beauty?
Is all good structure in a winding stair?
May no lines pass, except they do their duty
Not to a true, but painted chair?”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
