What do the graphs indicate about Bolivia’s labor force?
Few people in Bolivia work in services.
Few people in Bolivia work in industry.
Most people in Bolivia work in agriculture.
Most people in Bolivia work in industry.
Answers
The fourth option is correct - Most people in Bolivia work in industry.
Bolivia is an industrialised country, though one of the poorest among Latin American countries. One main reason for this backward state of Bolivia, is its political instability. Most of the labour force working in industries are informal i.e. casual workers and therefore not affiliated to Trade Unions etc.
Only 32% of the labour force, work in the agricultural sector.
The correct statement will be, “The graphs tell us about Bolivia’s labour force that about 1/3rd of Bolivians work in agriculture”.
However, more of the people are in the industry in the Latin American countries that shows the backward state in terms of political instability.
The working style is also informal.
