how literacy and occupational structure are indicators of country's growth and development
Dear student,
The literacy rate is the total percentage of the population who can read and write. A high literacy rate affects the quality of the human population. A high literacy rate will allow people to avail better job employment opportunities and contribute in the growth of economy. Hence, contributes to a developed economy.
The occupational structure refers to the distribution of population engaged in different occupations/sectors, i.e. primary, secondary or tertiary sectors. The occupational structure for an economy indicates its state of development. A greater share of the agriculture sector in the occupation structure reflects an underdeveloped state of the economy, on the other hand, a higher share of the service sector indicates that the economy is in a developed state.
Regards,
