Economic development creates various types of occupations in an economy. All these various occupations can be broadly classified into three categories, viz., primary, secondary and tertiary. The primary occupations include all those essential activities such as agriculture and allied activities like animal husbandry, forestry, fishery, poultry farming etc.

Secondary activities include manufacturing industries composed of both large and small scale and mining. Tertiary activities include all other activities like transport, communication, banking, insurance, trade etc. The occupational structure indicated the distribution as well as absorption of population into these various types of occupations.

Hi there,

*The distribution of the population according to different types of occupation is referred to as the occupational structure.

*The proportion of people working in different activities varies in developed and developing countries.

* Developed nations have a high proportion of people in secondary, and tertiary activities.

*Developing countries tend to have a higher proportion of their workforce engaged in primary activities.

* In India, about 64 per cent of the population is engaged only in agriculture.

*The proportion of population dependent on secondary and tertiary sectors is about 13 and 20 per cent respectively.

*There has been an occupational shift in favor of secondary and tertiary sectors because of growing industrialisation and urbanisation in recent times

Hope this helped you...
