Figure 2
The line graph compares “Total workforce” and “Manufacturing” values across two time points. The horizontal axis displays the years from left to right as 2006, 2011, 2016, and 2021. The vertical axis ranges from 0.00 to 1.00 in increments of 0.20. Two lines are shown and identified in the legend below the chart. The dashed line labeled “Total workforce” begins at (2006, 0.85), increases slightly across the intermediate years, and ends at (2021, 0.94). The solid line labeled “Manufacturing” begins at (2006, 0.36), dips slightly around 2011, then rises and ends at (2021, 0.42). The values 0.85 and 0.94 are displayed near the endpoints of the dashed line, and 0.36 and 0.42 are displayed near the endpoints of the solid line. Note: All numerical data values are approximated.Changes in the female-to-male ratio (FMR) in the Australian manufacturing sector from 2006 to 2021 (ABS, 2021)
