A legend at the bottom depicts that the graph contains two types of bars for each year: “Total (All industries) (1,000 persons)” and “Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons),” and a line with circular markers represents “Female Total-Total Ratio in percentage.” The horizontal axis ranges from 2010 to 2022 in increments of 1 year. The left vertical axis ranges from 0 to 20,000 in increments of 2000 units. The data from the bars is as follows: 2010: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 13064.516, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 4838.71. 2011: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 14435.484, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 5161.29. 2012: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 15241.935, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 5403.226. 2013: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 18145.161, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 6290.323. 2014: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 18306.452, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 6532.258. 2015: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 17983.871, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 6370.968. 2016: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 17903.226, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 6451.613. 2017: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 17580.645, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 6451.613. 2018: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 17258.065, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 6370.968. 2019: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 17177.419, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 6612.903. 2020: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 17016.129, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 6774.194. 2021: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 17016.129, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 6854.839. 2022: Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 16693.548, Female Total (All industries) (1,000 persons): 6693.548. Note: All numerical data values are approximated. The right vertical axis ranges from 30 percent to 42 percent in increments of 2 percent. The line starts at (2010, 37.25) and passes through (2011, 36.27), (2012, 35.83), (2013, 35.00), (2014, 35.82), (2015, 36.14), (2016, 36.44), (2017, 37.10), (2018, 37.24), (2019, 38.95), (2020, 39.79), and (2021, 40.27), ending at (2022, 40.52).Total employment by urban public entities in China and the corresponding female workforce ratio (2010–2022).
