    Abstract

    A knowledge of the significant changes which have been taking place in the sectoral composition of employment is fundamental to a proper understanding of the recent evolution of the labour force. This paper traces the changes in the numbers at work in broad sectors of the Irish economy over the period 1961-80. The basic information is given in Appendix I, Table A which contains an annual sectoral subdivision under four broad headings (Agriculture, Manufacturing, Building and Services); Tables 1 and 1A following show these data for selected years* in this period with a somewhat more detailed sectoral subdivision, the second table giving absolute and relative employment changes by sector for the 1961/1971 and 1971/1979 periods.
