What are the major occupation in the Netherlands? |
Travel Info What are the major occupation in the Netherlands? Travel Tips The Central Bureau for Statistics recently issued figures for the year 2006. Agriculture 194.000 Industry 1.471.000 Services (commercial) 2.725.000 Services (non-commercial) 2.428.000 Unknown 256.000 Largest sub-groups: 470.000 working in Building 562.000 working in Retail 534.000 working for Government 510.000 working in Education 1.101.000 working in Healthcare So mainly office workers. The Dutch don't manufacture much these days. Looking at these figures you'd say all we do is get ourselves a house, then go shopping, pay taxes, go to school and get sick :-( *Edit: Note to "M": The Netherlands no longer build planes, less ships, textile industry is gone. So over time there is definitely a decrease in Industry and a shift towards Services.
