Gender

In this industry, employment is divided fairly equally between men and women. Whilst currently men are in the majority (51%), it is expected that in 2012 most of the workforce (54%) will be women.

Whilst self-employment is insignificant, the proportion of people working part-time is increasing and will continue to do so. This growth of part-time work is mainly due to increases in the number of female employees.
